How do I remove a stubborn driveshaft stuck in the coupling connecting it to the worm? I removed the U-joint, driveshaft tube, and the two rivets in the driveshaft to worm coupling, but I cannot get a good enough grip to pull the driveshaft out of the coupling, or the coupling from the worm. Do I need a puller? Should I put the U-joint back on and tap it away from the coupling with a hammer?

I got the drive shaft out of the coupling. Found a couple of steel bars and sandwiched them to the drive shaft and then was able to knock it with a hammer.
