Removing them is going to be curious as there is only a flimsy dust ring, nothing to pry on like the factory axles.
Also, the 40mm axle nut went too deep on the axle shaft, passing the cotter pin hole in the axle by 1/8" plus

Rather than go get washers I reused the 35mm Toyota factory nut and castle cap, torqued to 174# with my buddy on the brake pedal and installed a cotter pin and wrapped it up.

Anyone want to buy a 40mm 1/2" impact socket cheap? Lol

Removal is done by hitting the shaft stub with a big dead blow to separate. No need to pry.
ETA, obviously undo the 4 LBJ bolts underneath also….
