Newbie question

[Luckas]

I've looked through the posts, consulted the tech manual, but I still have some questions. Maybe it's because i'm relatively new to automechanics but i'm looking for a way to remove the whole rear axle.
If I have it right, I have to get the car up on jack stands, put the jack under the differential... (and lift it ??? or just to support it ?)
Remove the wheels and the brake drums, then I need to bleed the rear brake circuit and disconnect it somewhere along the bottom of the car.
And then my english understanding of technical words lets me down...
Can anyone help me put these in the proper order and tell me if I have it right or left something out?
-disconnect the central shaft just in front of the differential (or is it one connection earlier ?
-disconnect the stabilizer rod from the car body and the axle
-disconnect the parking brake wires
-disconnect the track rod and the two lower control arms from the car body
-diconnect the shock absorbers from the car body
-lower the jack and remove the coil springs
and finally roll the axle from under the car...

Again my apologies for my dumb questions... (but i don't want to ruin my first Opel GT, I love it too much)

Put the car up on jackstands,and support the diff. with a floor jack. (1) diconnect the driveshaft from the transmission to the torque tube(2) disconnect the parking brake cable at the ajustment rod(3) unbolt the torque tube crossmember from the bottom of the car and support it level with the floor with a jackstand(4)disconnect the tracking bar from the bracket on the body(5) disconnect the shock bottoms from the rearend housing(6) disconnect the brake line at the hose and screw an old piece of brake line with the tube flattened into the hose to keep it from leaking fluid(7) disconnect the trail arms from the rear end housing and pivot them down out of the way. Now the rearend is ready to come out from under the car with the wheels and tires removed support the torque tube and roll the rearend out from under the car(two person job).

The whole rear axle assembly weighs about 80 kg so be ready to move and handle that weight.
