Dave,

After removing the screw in part #10 you should be able to push or lever the complete axle rearwards off the suspension. After removing these #10 you will have to realign the axle after refitting to the car.

The other way to remove the axle is to remove the swinging link suspension from the torsion bar arm with the correct puller. See attached drawing which is from the 400 - 403 Workshop manual . Even with this puller it can be difficult to separate the two.
If you make a puller I suggest you make the main bolt diameter quite a bit larger as you often need to hit the bolt with a hammer to seperate the two which are on a taper.

I hope this helps
Geoff
