Default Can't get rear cv axel out of 1996 sportsman 500 transmission

I have it unbolted, tried using a slide hammer and pry-bar and still can't get either side of the axels out. 1996 never been removed. How can I get these out?

Are you just tryin to replace the boot? If so you can do this w/ the axle in the machine. But good luck on geting that axle out.
