My first axel replacement tomorrow

OK, I have the axel, the seal, a new 36mm socket and tranny fluid. I've read the write-ups and have a lift and air tools. I can do this. Anything I'm missing?

Maybe an axle.

A smaller socket (14mm or 17mm) to take off the lower A arm so you can swing hub out the way for the axle to come out. And a small pry bar if the axle doesnt want to come out easily.
