Default the flanges are pressed in...

what I did to get mine out was, I went to the hardware store and got 2 long bolts with the same thread pattern as the bolts that hold the cv axle to the flange. From there you take the bolts that you bought and screw them into the flange until they hit the tranny. Then you will want to screw the bolts in a few turns on each side, this will make the flange come out as evenly as possible. If you screw on one side too much it might not come out as nicely. All you do is keep on doing this and the flange will eventually come off. I hope this all makes sense to you, if you have any questions let me know and I will try to better explain the process.
