You havnt hammered the driveshaft threads direct? they'll be knackered if so.

You can remove inner driveshaft bolts, M8 multispline. No gearbox oil will leak. You can then try remove driveshaft from hub after if it is re-useable. If threads/spline damaged or is bent then get a new shaft. Give me a call if required as ill be able to help

Finally got it off thanks all for the tips managed to get it off by someone holding the leg out and hitting with extension bar in the centre and hit with lump hammer, the thread on the shaft looks o.k. will be using old driveshaft now how do i take the tie rod off want to change tie rod end and tie bar as the the bar is bent can i turn it out without removing rubber boot from steering wheel end only.
