I would also take the whole thing off without disturbing the ABS sensor if you can. Just swap it all over.

You've got the rave but my recollection is jack it up, remove he tire, remove the caliper, remove the rotor, then take 5 bolts off the back. Beat the hub off (don't use pry tools if you can avoid it) and slide it out. Slide the new one in and be sure the end of the shaft goes in the differential, then button it all up.

If you raise the axle a bit you won't get gear oil everywhere.
