hey all,

i'm replacing the axle (driveshafts) on my car.
i have removed one, but am having trouble with the 2nd one (passenger side)
the problem is simple. the outer cv-joint is stuck in the wheel hub where all the splines are. it's like it must be totally rusted together. on the other side, after disassembling part of the suspension, i was able to slide out the axle from the wheel hub easily. but on this side, it is stuck.
do you have any suggestions for breaking it free? should i take a sledge to it to pound it out?? (i've already tried a hammer, and sprayed some WD-40 like stuff on it)

thanks,
dave
