I thought I could replace the CV boot on my G20 driver's side axle from Raxles, but I had the same problem. No amount of hammering would remove it.
I asked Marty at Raxles, and he said their outer CV joints can be very difficult to remove, and recommended removing the inner CV joint, and sliding the outer CV joint boot on that way.
Soooo...lesson learned, buy both CV boots if you only need the outer replaced.
