Well I belted the bejesus out of it, firstly with a brass drift and ball hammer, then brass drift and block hammer, then blunt chisel and block hammer, then blunt chisel and sledge hammer (small swing), then large rod held by long pliers and medium swing sledge hammer, then just medium swing sledge hammer. We refrained from full swing sledge as we value our workshop and the medium swings was already causing dammage to the CV.
So I rang around a few places and landed on the incredible Southern Drive Shafts in Miranda. Who for $60 a side (trade), changed and repacked my outer CVs. For $10 a pop, installed new boots. And for nothing, assembled one of my inner CVs which had missing parts.
Couldn't be happier for $160, comming out with 4 new boots and knowing my CVs were professionally pressed off and on (and not just had the crap belted out of them).
Another drive shaft place told be they could not be dissassembled in any way shape or form and would only replace them with new outer CVs for $200 per side.
All mechanics said they would give it a belt but could not garauntee getting them off, or shattering them in the process.
