Toyota Repair: half shaft 88 toyota celica, bearing retainer, toyota celica


Question
my left side half shaft is stuck on and i was told to just pry on it and so i did and i broke the croe bar and then i got help from a toyota dealer and they told me to just pry on it then it didnt work i went to a shop here and they said i would use a bigger pry bar then that started bending  then i was told to beat on the grooves with a hammer and screwdriver and that still didnt work do you have any other ideas   it has like 6 bolts going around it but i cant get to like 3 of the bolts with anything because the lack of room do i have to take them bolts out but it isnt a flanged half shaft because the other side came out with ease and i didnt have to take bolts of the transmission on the right side    do you have any ideas    thank you

Answer
DO NOT REMOVE THESE BOLTS,  they are for a differential bearing retainer, everyone has told you correctly that the shaft should pry out, why it won't come out I don't really know, sometimes rotating the shaft may help, there is a snap ring on the inside on the end of the shaft but it does not have to be removed it just pops out.
