2G AWD Passenger side axle replacement - will this method work?

I dont think that will work you are going to need to undo one of the ball joints. With just taking the strut bolts out wouldnt do much. The hub will still be attached to the upper control arm and lower arms and will not move out of the way to remove the axle. What I have always done is remove the upper balljoint(its easier then the lower) the caliper and the lower strut(wishbone)bolt maybe even the tie rod but I cant remember.
