Mine was really! stuck, I put a strap ( 5/8" nylon webbing -1800lb load) around it where I there is no space to reach - right at the transmission:
1) Attempted to make slide hammer so it would pop out easily -
2) 2 hours later, I backed the van up the sidewalk and used a come-along.
REMEMBER THE SHAFT HAS TO COME STRAIGHT OUT !
With way more strength in very tight area it popped-out!
I think it was well 'seated' after 18 years.
A local shop quoted my brothers 2000 Grand Prix GTP CV Joint replacement at 700 Canadian dollars.
A CV joint in one of the front halfshaft axles is going bad.
The boot on my cv joint is stuck inside of the trans how do u go about getting that out and what else do i need to fix after that comes out
It is generally not cost-effective to replace individual CV joints. Rebuilt or new CV shaft assemblies in most cases cost less than the joint itself, and are a lot less work to install.

CV joints on any car are part of a "half-shaft," and they run from the wheel to the transmission.
When the CV joints start to leak grease or make snapping and cracking noises.

Remove wheel and brake caliper, remove caliper frame and ABS cable.Separate tie rod end and ball joint from steering knuckle. Remove hub nut and pull knuckle away from outer cv joint. Insert a thin pry bar between cv inner and transaxle case and jerk it to loosen cv joint. Re-install in reverse order.
