4540 4wd from axle disassembly

We have a leak coming from between the axle and hub. I assume it's the axle o-ring or the seal itself or both. I have separated the hub and removed the 1 1/8 axle nut. I thought I could just press the axle out but it's not budging. My local shop will not return my calls. Does anyone have experience with the removal of the axle from the front hub? It is the circled diagram below.
