I think you need a buddy to push the wheel in toward
the pumpkin, then the clip should slip free.

if you have traction control you need to remove the sensors out on the backing plates so the axles can move in far enough.

The same thing happened to me, its insane that I couldn't figure out the sensors were holding me up yet I was able to replace the axles and the abs/tcs aluminum ring on my new axle.
