you're talking about seperating the cv shaft from the half shaft that bolts to the block, correct? If so, grab a pry bar and a BFH and "encourage" them apart. They're a pain in the ass, since most of the time they don't like to seperate.

Use a shaped charge.

You can hammer on that half shaft part (that bolts to the block) and eventually it will separate. I've had to do this only a few times but everytime it only took like 10 wind-up hits. =)

Yep had the same problem with my 2g, I pretty much ruined my half shaft seperating them. I did the same thing everyone else did though hammer the $hit out of it.
