Default Removing axle with traction control!!!

I'm in the middle of taking my axle out now. I can just see the C-clip, but I can;t get it out.

I know my car has traction control and ABS. I removed one sensor, but I don;t know what to remove for the TCS.



What does the TCS sensor I need to remove look like?

I have one but I'm not taking a pic yet.
The sensor is on the backing plate, held in with one 10mm bolt. It's black plastic with a 3/16" diameter 1/2" long magnet sticking out. It's the only thing on the backing plate with a wire plugged into it.

I'm assuming you also removed the brake disc and differential cross pin or block?

Yea thanks man. I figured it out soon after I posted this. Now I'm just having a hard time refilling the oil.

Any help?

Most parts stores, even walmart sells oil pumps that go into the gear oil bottle and have a hose that you put in the filler hole.
The one I got was made for gallon jugs but it can be easily made to work with a quart bottle.
These look a little like the pumps on the big orange hand cleaner bottles.
Don't get the siphoning kit, it's cheaper, looks like it would work, says it would work, but it doesn't have a check valve and doesn't pump oil.
