Default Front drive shaft removal?

Pulling the front axle to swap into my project. My question is ...will the front drive shaft just slide of the shaft of the TC or can someone tell my the best way to pull it. I pulled the rear and it just slid off hoping the front does the same. Thanks guys

I saw four smaller bolts I assume those are the ones. I figured it would be those...didn't look to bad to get to them.

Ahh not bad. I will drop that baby out. If only my control arm bolts were that easy, got the nuts off bit the bolts don't wanna come out. Oh well thanks for the info
