you remove the lower ball join to make space to push out the axles so you can get the buckets out, i left the axles in since i did not want to have to take the axle nut off. But if you have the socket for it and have not yet done the axle re torquing tsb then maybe you should get it all out at the same time. be careful of the abs sensor wire when moving the rear assembly, it is very easy to damage. it was real easy, just really messy though. either you do the cv bucket swap or the spacers. no need to do both. i would personally do the swap, but if you have money to burn then get the spacers. mind you it will not prevent it from happening again. this has been covered check the main under the hood section. its a sticky. then maybe you can decide which route you go.

And a some info just to clarify. Vibration present from 40mph up, 2nd 3rd 4th gears being the worst. Smooths out around 60mph. Slight oscillation in 5 and 6 at 60-70 mph

The buckets are the same. Even if you have two different axles, the swap should be possible.
Do not under any circumstance put an auto parts axle in. I promise you the shakes will be way worse then they are right now.
Never give up the OEM hollow shaft style axles.
