From my service manual,

1, Remove six bolts and take off free wheel hub body.
2, Using snap ring pliers, remove axle snap ring retainer and spacer.
3, Pry out fixed cam assembly. (this is with the hub)
4, Remove 2 bolts and remove brake caliper from brake rotor. temporarily tie caliper to vehicle frame with wire.
5, Remove upper control arm link lock bolt, spring washer (lock washer) and nut.
6, Remove tierod end cotter pin and using a ball joint puller, remove tierod end from steerint knuckle.
7, Loosen the drop link lower lock nut. (strut fork)
8, Loosen the drop link upper four lock nuts.
9, Using a rubber hammer, open up the drop link fork. (I have had to use a small sledge and a big drift on mine)
10, Mark halfshaft for identical instillation position. (I don't know that this is nessary installing a new one)
11, Using suitable tool (pry bar or big screwdriver), pry halfshaft form differential housing.

Assembly in reverce order. Push in new half shaft intill you hear a click and make sure it does not just pull out easy.

The manual has illistrations but you should be able to do it without them. Just take your time and pay attention how it came apart and you should be able to do it.

Hope this helps, Dennis
