Default Need help finding a diagram for the axle

does anyone have a DIY or a pdf file that will tell me the steps to removing the passanger side front axle. the seal that holds it to the tranny got punctured so its dropping atf fluid everywhere (my fault) I just need to know the procedure to safely removing the axle. once i do that hte seal is on top i just swap seals.

Thanks in advance.

Guess I don't know the specific procedure for the xB2, but my experience is it's necessary to remove the half axle before you can access the seal. That requires removing the axle nut and pushing the axle inward, free of the hub. Seems like complete separation is easier with the steering wheel turned to the right and maybe the right tie-rod end disconnected from the knuckle (personally, I'm inclined to loosen the strut nuts). Once you have the axle completely free of the hub, it's time to use a pry bar (probably 12") to pop the axle free of the transaxle. Just be aware that when it comes free, transmission fluid is going to spill out and so you need a pan to catch it. After it's out and the fluid has drained, then you can ease out the seal and replace it.
