Axles are simple to pull. Easier with an impact.
-Pull the wheels,
-remove the axle nuts
-remove the ball joint nut or nut and bolt(can't remember which it one it has)
-Remove tie rod end nut
-hit spindle from rear of car at tie rod, don't hit tie rod end or threads. Tie rod should break free after hitting spindle a time or two
-pry down on control arm with big pry bar, might have to hit control arm or pry bar down to help it
-pull spindle away from axle, might have to tap axle through the hub a little, use a punch so you don't hammer on the threads of the shaft
-Drain transmission,
-Pull axles from transmission, might have to use a pry bar between axle and transmission. They're in there pretty good.
I'm sure someone on the forum has pulled the transmission(5spd) without pulling the subframe.
Many ways to do it.
When I've pulled engines from 04+ F150's I've always unbolted everything from below first, then pull the cab off, then pull the engine. Could pull a cab off in an hour. A co worker did the same engine job by leaving the cab. He had to pull the intake and squeeze it out scratching the crap out of everything along the way. We did the same job in close to the same time. One way had more bolts but less fighting and damage done.
