    Another way to remove the driveshaft from the housing is first remove the pinion nut of course. Next place the driveshaft in a vice horizontally and let the housing but up next to the vice. Take a 2X4 and place it against the housing, then take a hammer and give the board a good "rap" and the housing will pop the pinion gear off of the end of the driveshaft.

    Hope this helps,
