It should come loose if you keep working on it..sometimes if there is wear on the shaft or clutch it can make it harder to come apart..if you have it in the floor the trans centerline still needs to be somewhat lined up with the engine centerline until it clears the clutch..if you pull it out part way and let the trans drop out of centerline it will cause it to bind up..try holding up on the tailshaft and pry at the same time..may take 2 people..
