Bill at the risk of having all others gasp in shock ....
I removed my axles as follows
1 remove the drum
2 remove cotter pin and turn the nut out about 4 to six turns
3 with a wheel puller ( the three leg type with a screw shaft in the
center ) pull off the hub assembly . I use the type that you tighten and
hit the screw assembly with a hammer real hard .
4. with the hub off remove the four bolts holding the seal and brake backing
plate to the housing.
5 replace the hub minus the key on the axle shaft and replace the bolt 2 or
three turns
6 using the hub as a slide hammer drive the axle shaft out ( its really
only the bearing race which you are driving off.
