1. Put the rear diff on jack stands,
2. Take the wheels off
3. disconnect the brake line going into the drum. Use a pipe spanner to do this if you have one.
4. Take the brake drum off, you can use screw drivers to help lever it off.
5. Take the 4 bolts out that attach the drum to the diff.
6. Attach a piece of chain about 60cm long onto the axle stud, use one of the wheel nuts to hold it on. Give it a few yanks to snatch it out. The axle should come out after 3 or 4 pulls
