I can't separate outer CV joint on the right half-shaft.
I can spread the retaining clip but the bearing cage assembly won't come off the shaft.
First I tried pulling by hand, then tapping with a brass drift and hammer, then I put
the shaft in a vise and pounded it with a brass drift and 2-lb sledge. Won't budge.

Any suggestions for removing the bearing cage?
Alternatively, is there a source for affordable replacements for the entire half-shaft?

Thanks for the help.
