Cv axle on driver's side.when trying to take out, the cv axle was broken at the joints. Now all that is left is the inner shaft going into the transmission. How do you suggest to pull it out?

Thats a good one. You will need to remove the axle on the opposite side and use a long skinny punch to reach through and hammer the end out of the opposite side. The spider pinion will be in the way but there should be room. Here is a guide to help you see how to remove the CV axle.
