How the hell do you remove the rear spindles?

Okay, I'm replacing the the studs in my left rear, and the only thing standing in my way now is the damn spindle. How the hell does that thing come out? Do you just press it out or is there some trick, 'cause the damn thing isn't moving.
Thanks for any help.

I have the axles out, and the knuckles out. I just need to get the spindle ( the part that actually holds the studs) out. You can't get the studs out with the spindle still in the knuckle.

I hope I'm using the right names for the parts here....

and yeah dude..Columbus, Oh haha. I go by the name "Broken_Wankel" on all the other boards im on though.
