1991 Ford Aerostar w/AWD half-axle R&R

My Chilton’s manual doesn’t have a section describing half-axle removal & replacement for my 1991 Ford Aerostar with AWD. Anyone have something that does?

Reply to Kevin's Post: This doesn't help. The removal procedure listed in the answer is for the front wheel "differential", which they refer to as the "axle housing". I am asking for a procedure to remove the half-axle (which goes between the axle housing and the front wheel). Thanks, but the procedure given as an answer is included in my Chilton's manual, but is NOT the procedure I requested.

 Remove the wheel, calipers and brake rotors. Now remove the differential cover #20. Remove the pin bolt locking large pin in place  #34. Slide the pin out to remove it. Now push both axles in slightly and that will expose a locking "C" clip. Remove the clip and the axle will slide out.
