Good luck getting the driveshafts out of the hubs. They look rustier than mine.
Make sure whoever you use to press the hubs out only mount the hub flange on the press.
Went to 2 places to get mine out. First one damaged the wheel carriers with their 8 tone press as they didn't mount it properly in the press.
Second place i went to used a 25ton press and custom gig to get them out as well as soaking them in penetrating fluid over night and using heat. It took about 20Ton of pressure before they eased out.

The wheel carriers cost me about $250 each to replace
