Mine, I got the little ring holding the rubber boot off with a little mechanics pick, then with the boot off you'll see the circlip that was a real bugger for me to get out. Longest thinnest circlip pliers you have. Once they are both out the shaft will pull right out, but the good news for you is with the shaft depressed like that it will make this whole thing a lot easier, I had to keep trying to hold mine in while trying to get the circlip. If you don't already have a rebuild kit for this, I'd get one quick, it won't be something you will want to turn around and do again in a few months. Huge PIMA. Good Luck.
