Drive Axle

I need to change the drive axle on my 89 Civic Si.....I saw a show a while ago where they did this, and they only had to umbolt the brake rotor, and swing it out of the way to pull the axle. Is there anything else I need to do o pull it. If it's really involved I'll take it to a mechanic
THANKS ALL!!!:flash:

Yeah dude..you need to pull apart the ball joint...that should allow enough movement that you can push the axle in and out of the hub. Be careful when putting a new axle in the tranny that you don't nick the oil seal for the tranny fluid..I wasn't careful and I have little black spots under the wifey's Corolla :(

make sure you get the right axle too, dx's and si's have diff amount of splines on them
