If i decide to replace axle seals , brake band etc , would a portable engine crane be suitable for removing axle housing ?

Not only suitable, but necessary. Too heavy to lift without one. Makes it easy to put it back together also. If it doesn't want to slide back in, it's easy to raise, lower, or move side to side. Do not separate the final drive housing--not necessary. Remove fender and the 8-9 bolts that hold the axle housing to the main frame. Drain some of your oil before you pull the axle. ....
