...toyota camry? I removed both front axles and the right one came off easy and installed just as quick and easily. I spent two hours getting the left side off and after 4 or so hours i gave up trying to install the left drive axle. i can get the splines in to where they will engage the whole axle but havent gotten the snap ring to go in deep enough to lock in position.
 
they can be a pain in the arse some times if there is a metal part on the axle you can put a pry bar on and tap with a mini sledge i would do that if not and im hesitant in suggesting this you can alternatly tap the end of the axel with the mini sledge by pushing in on the axel as far as you can then tapping with hand pressure on the axle
