Rear End Dissasembly Help

Hey guys, while the car is up for the winter here in Illinois..... sniff, sniff, I have decided to stop the oil drip out of the rear differential. I have the drive shaft off and the wheels off. The rear has a small drip coming from the front cover and I can see RTV that has not done its job fully evidently.

The Heim bracket hooks on the top 2 bolts and I have found those to be loose before, so I will replace all of the cover nuts with new locking nuts when I am done.

My question is when all of the cover nuts are loose do I have to pull the axles to take the front shaft and cover off to reseal everything for re-assembly?

If so how do you get the disk off to get to the 4 bolt heads to pull out the axles? Still in the learning curve here. Hope these pictures help.
Thanks Guys
Kirk
