see if the axle splines are loose ... if they are go rent a slide hammer from autozone.
this is what i had to do to replace mine. The one i rented took about 3 good slides and it came right off.
Just a tip: the tool i rented had 3 mounting holes but since we have a not so common bolt pattern it didnt fit so i had to do a little grinding on the tools holes so it would fit over 3 lug studs. it was so little they didnt notice it when i returned the tool.

Mine came out a little hard, basically fell apart, was rusted bad. When u install new one, use antiseize on the axle splines and any other place u can, it makes for
Much easier removal next time

Have someone turn the steering wheel to have the extensions press towards the frame [Use a rag or 2 to prevent dents!] and once you have enough pressure start hammering on the side the make shift press is on and it will start coming out. Do the same to the other side and boom. The ABS ring will be more than likely stuck but a flathead wrapped in a rag solved that.
Anti seize is your best friend. Lube the hell out of the new assembly before installing.
