Transmission removal help

[bighunting]

I'm trying to remove my transmission (3 speed manual), but can't get the drive shaft free. I've disconnected the shaft from the rear differential, but it won't pull loose from the transmission. Any advice? I've tried beating on it with a hammer at the transmission end, and I've wrapped a chain around the other end and used a crow bar, but so far no luck. I thought it was supposed to just slip right off??
