Does anyone have a link that I could follow when replacing my axle or does anyone have any tips going about this.

Its actually way easier than you might think.

1) Un-stake axle nut
2) Break axle nut loose w/ vehicle on floor (easier) and recommend using 3/4in. breaker bar.
3) Safely jack up the vehicle
4) Jack up vehicle and remove wheel
5) Unbolt lower ball joint
6) Unbolt ABS sensor
7) Remove Axle nut
8) Slide spindle off the axle nut
9) Remove 6 14mm bolts/ nuts
10) Slide off and slide new one on.

To reassemble do everything in reverse.
