It's been noted that after so many rotations that the CV body and axle become extremely magnetized. This will stop you from pulling the CV off of the axle. You can demagnetize the assembly by passing it through the core of a 200 hp electric motor casing with the casing connected to 5,000 volts.
Actually it is rare that the end of the axle splines may become damaged. You will have to drive the CV back onto the axle and use a triangular file to clean up the splines. Clean the area to remove all the grease so you can see what you are doing.
Having forced the CV to the end of the axle you may find that the surfaces are extremely galled and may not be repairable. I suspect that the axle you are working on is a rebuild or that once you get it apart you may find the axle cracked.
