I'm trying to get a passenger side axle out of my 2000 GTP, and it just will not release. I'm not keeping tension on it. I have a pry bar with the hooked end sort of hanging on the axle since the straight part can't get purchase anywhere. I have pushed, I have kicked. I'm about to go golfing with a sledgehammer.

Maybe I'm underestimating the amount of force needed, but I'm shaking the car pretty good. Is there something I'm possibly missing, or some special secret here?

Thanks,
Steve
