You need a 22mm socket. Use this on the driveshaft nut each side. Now, remove the pinch bolt in the hub, you may need to hammer it out with a punch - or small screwdriver. Seperate the balljoint from the hub - you should use a crowbar or fork shaped splitter and a big hammer will help 
Once you free the hub from the balljoint, hammer the drive shaft out, it will pop out after a while.
Put a tray under the diff cover plate, to catch gearbox oil. Tug the drive shafts and they should pop out of the gear box on both sides.
Some saw crowbar them out but I think this method is quicker and easier.
