flip it around and there should be one little bolt in the middle after you take that out push your axle in and the c clips holding them in will fall out

If you look at the posi unit, do you have a thick bolt that's between the axle ends? If so, that bolt needs to be removed. There's a little bolt at one end of the thick bolt, which I think takes a 5/16 wrench to turn. Take the little bolt out, slide the big bolt out, push the axles inward, and the c-clips should fall out.
