Any ideas on how to get the driveshaft off the front of the gearbox on a sunstar deck?

The box is luni, so the "bigger hammer" is out! I wouldn't mess with it but the oil seal is leaking a lot so it's gotta come apart.

I thought about the torch to heat up the u-joint half, but not sure if there is a better way or not. Can't use a puller, since the rest of the driveshaft is in the way.

Been soaking it for a week with PB, no luck, never had much luck with PB anyway, but I am getting desperate and running out of time, need to mow! lol!! thanks; ac fleet
