I watched my mechanic do the left side - he had a *very* long pry bar, and of course had a lift. He pulled on the axle while prying. There were some swear words, and it came out. It was stubborn.

I got lucky and happened to attempt the right side myself - the easy one.

My guess would be pry the axle away at the tip of the bar, meaning you aren't prying inward with the end of the bar towards the seal. If you aren't rebuilding the axle, you don't need to worry about damaging the boot. This is just conjecture - I wish you luck.
