Default Axle stuck.

I have a 93 prelude si, and the passenger side axle is stuck about halfway out. I have no idea how to get it out, I tried prying, I tried putting a bar in between the axle and trans and hammering, nothing. I hooked a come-along to a tree and the axle, and almost pulled the car off the jackstand. I won't be doing that again.
I hope someone can give me some suggestions to get it out.

I had a hard time on one of mine as well.

Poped it back in and out a few times... just wedge it out, DO NOT mess up the tranny rubber gasket thing though. try not to break anything!

keep trying, you'll get it...

I ran into the same problem. First time I tried i was prying so hard the engine in the car was moving back and forth. I just kept at it for over 30mins with a prybar (not as hard as before) and it finally popped out. I dont have a clue why it took less force but it came out eventually.
