Just gotta pull and tug until it comes out, sometimes it's kinda hard, just pull and turn until it comes out.

Beat it with a mallet while turning it. Thats the fastest way I've ever gotten it out. There has to be a better way to put those damn things in our cars. Such a pain in the ***.

Use a large rubber hammer, the ones that have the harder yellow rubber. Turn and bang. Quick hard wacks and it'll come out.

I always use a large flathead screwdriver on the inner joint of the axle, and hit the screwdriver with a hammer.
