Default Replacing CV Axles

Hello, i have a 1996 Honda civic cx hatchback and i need to do the cv axles/boots on it, i am wondering is it as easy as it looks? taking off the main hub bolt and pulling them off and putting the new ones in than topping up the trans axle with fluid again? i would appreciate any feedback thank you

When you are installing the new axles listen for the snap rings to snap into place. Then you know they are properly seated. Don't forget to replace your output shaft seals.

There are a few things that can make this job painful, but if you're prepared its not too bad.
