Replacing left axle shaft

I lost approximately 1/2 of a quart after removing both CV axles. 

 

NOTE: If you are replacing CV Axles, buy Motorcraft (from RA if they have them in-stock).  Whatever you do, don't buy FVP; I went with FVP on the driver's side because R/A only carried Motorcraft for the passenger side.  The FVP got jammed in the differential during [attempted] installation and I had to use a crowbar to pry it out, which trashed the "seal cup" feature.  Still returned it, since the inboard pilot diameter was obviously not machined correctly (oversize).  Motorcraft CV axle slid right in, with just a few taps (by hand).
