Grab it from behind the wheel or push the center of the axle stub with a punch or something that won't mar the threads. I don't think I even had to remove the tire...just jack up the rear of the car and jump down in there with a brush or a stick and jam a little grease on the exposed splines. This is a 10 min job.
Going to give this a try in a couple of days when I have a little more time. Thanks for the tips.
