passenger side should just pull out, drivers side (the one in the diff) should have a spring clip on the shaft that retains the shaft in the diff - remove the diff bottom cover to get access to the clip.
Front discs are retained with a small countersunk screw, but even if that's removed they may be stuck(corroded) onto the hub, and require some "persuasion" to release
