Default VC Axle help Please

Hello everybody
I have a 2016 ES350. I went to replace the CV axles and I am having trouble getting the passenger side out. The driver side came out very easily.
I have removed the bearing housing to see if I can just get it out all the way but I cannot.
Anybody have any tips to get this axle out?

I had to do this because I wanted to replace the leaking boot, but winds up we cant separate it to put the new boot on.
So we had to take the entire axle out. I was at my friends shop on the lift and they had to heat it up with a acetalene torch multiple times and bang the **** out of it. Took 1-2 hours
