You will need to remove the hub first to allow you to slide the driveshaft out.
Once you have the drive shaft free with the pot joint on the end (which will need to levered free from the diff side) you have to Undo the CV boot (or cut it if you're replacing it),... remove the ball bearings,.. clean it up,.. then the end that the ball bearings house in can be hammered off.
