GO down to advanced or auto zone and pick up a Haynes Repair Manual for your year civic.

Jack the front of the car up and rest it on jack stands.

Pull the wheels and unbolt the axle nut (32mm or 1 1/4 inch socket).

Unbolt the castle nut on the lower ball joint.

Using a ball joint seperator, seperate the knuckle from the lower control arm and pull the steering knucle off of the axle and set it off to the side.

Passenger side: Using a pry bar, pry the axle out of the transmission by prying at the axle where it meets the trans.

Driver side: Unbolt the bracket half way up the axle then pull the axle out of the transmission (may or may not need to be pried out)

Installation is reverse of dissasembly.

Need anymore help just let me know.
