Hi,

i think there is something wrong with your axle. If you remove the circlip the axle should be easily slide out the cv joint without any brutal force. And please don't use a sledge hammer.

You can try to put some heat on the cv joint so it expands a bit, but be careful and carefully use a normal hammer to tack on it. Afterwards you have to remove all grease and clean everything up, because the grease isn't able to stand heat more than approx. 150 degree celsius.

Maybe it's better to replace it with a used axle, because it seems the teeth of the axle are worn.

Regards, Markus
