Rear Drive Shaft Removal 4wd

[fourrunner420]

I need help removing the rear drive shaft its free from the rear portion that connects to the rear tires but its stuck at the matting surface other side all bolts and nuts removed. Is there a special tool for this and any tricks to knock it loose?

The images you attached show the nuts still in place. If those have since been removed, a chisel and hammer used carefully at the mating surface will dislodge it.

Hopefully you have a replacement for that broken unit...

Yes they were removed. Im in Dallas taking it to a drive shaft shop that supposed to look at refurbishing it. This was my last resort as I could not find a new one online or a used one from a junk yard. If you know where i can get a new quality part please list a link.
