driveshaft stuck

Hi lads,

tried to remove the passenger side driveshaft but it looks like stuck.
I tried a lever and hammer it again and over again + tried other different ways on the internet... no luck.
Do you have any idea or do I just keep hammering the thing ?



Thank you !

Hi. Because the drive shaft is held in by a wire circlip in a groove you need to give it a sudden and very firm bump out th e way equal pressure on opposite sides is best so that it moves along its axis not forcing it to one side or the other this only helps the circlip to sit further into the groove.

"give it a sudden and very firm bump"

Hammered like a monkey throwing a coconut on the rock Thumbs Up

...and finally took it out
