Not sure why you would need a ball joint press. To remove the axle you need to loosen the axle nut (while car is on ground), jack up car, remove wheel, remove caliper, take off rotor, remove axle nut, undo the 14 nuts and bolts holding the aluminum pan and longitudinals (probably not correct name). Remove the part of the exhaust from the cat to the muffler. Remove 6 cv bolts at the transaxle and then remove axle. The axle nut is torqued down to 320 foot lbs. The nut is a 32 mm. You will need a long breaker bar or cheater bar to break it loose.
