than you're gunna want to use a pry bar. wedge it in between the axle hub and the transmission. have someone putting a small amount of force on the axle and the wheel hub to stop the cv from seperating. than slowly work the axle out of the trans. it would be easiest to do with your strut//spring being removed. than have the person pull on the hub, towards them, while they're holding with the other hand the axle to keep it in the cv joint itslef not to hyper extend the axle, because if you do you will mostliely never get the axle back together wihtout it being a pain in tha ass. you should also be pushing towards them to keep pressure on the axle and in moments you should have a free axle//spindle assembly. set it somewhere where it's not gunna get kicked around or anything. i'd put cardboard underneath your rotor as well. btw with the caliper since you have to remove it make sure that you have something holding it up and it's not just dangling there.
i got that pic from hondtech incase it's anyones car or anything.

OK. Erase from your mind everything you think you know and all of the options that you have explored.
There is a proper way to do this, and there is a proper tool for the job. Using this method will not damage your car in any way whatsoever and is actually recommended by Honda themselves.
Its called a breaker bar. Go borrow one, Check out auto zone's loan-a-tool program. Hit the local pawn shops. I know you said you don't have any money, but you should be able to pick up a nice one for $20-40. You should be able to come up with $40 somehow..
Just go do it, before you damage a $60 axle and end up having to buy a breaker bar later in life for something else anyway. Its just one of those tools you should have around.

yes
dont have 30 bucks or a ride to walmart.
lol
and the point of the heat isnt to remove the corrosion on the nut, its to draw the p.b. penetrating fluid into the nut, which will remove the corrosion.

Actually if it was me I'd already have it off. I would have gone and bought the tool necessary to get the bolt off already...

I still don't understand how this is soo hard to do. Ok, you don't have the money for tools. You don't have neighbors? You can't borrow tools? Do you have any big box end wrenchs? If so, put the biggest box end you have over the end of your ratchet. It'll give you leverage, I do it quite often.
It's MthaFuknGreen, what do you expect?
