I have read that in some cases, the geometry won't allow the cup to be pushed all the way out. The suggestion I read was to grip the exposed part of the cup in a vise, then drive the yoke off with blows from a soft hammer.

I have a driveshaft that I'd like to service, but oh joy, the cups are "staked" into position rather than held in by clip rings. Count your blessings!
