Its kind of pinched in between the cv axels. I've tried prying it but to no avail. Has anybody had this problem I've been working on it for two days tryin to get it loose lol. I can post pics if need be.
I can't get the diff out.

You should be able to push the axles in and get enough room to slide them around the hubs on the diff if the rear wheels are off the ground.
Pushed the flange of the half shaft away from the diff like hyvman said. It took two screwdrivers just to do one side when I did it, but once you get them apart enough, wedge them into the area directly above (the flanges of the half shafts will sit on the flanges of the diff). Then get out from under the car and find something to lower it on because you won't have to worry about the half shafts if you ositioned them right.

<nodding> the Plunge is at the Tripod end (Diff end)
They should flop out of the way once off the Stub axle studs.
I tried to pry them apart when it was bolted to the frame they didn't move. So I thought maybe if I went ahead an dropped the diff out it would give me some more wiggle room but no. I've even tried to knock the axels through the hubs that didn't work either. Tried jacking it back up nope, tried jacking the suspension too. I think its funny cause we got it out of the other car in like 20 min and mine takes over two days lol.

Ok I will try what you guys said, pull the cv shaft towards the out side and it should come loose. I'll give her a shot.
