Once the CV is out of the way the axle stub that goes into the diff housing can be pried out with a couple of small bars.

I assume this is the area you are talking about?

There is a ring on the inner side of the axle which will most likely break when you pry the axle out, if it doesn't it should probably be replaced anyway.
