This is what I do, and this is usually the difficult part the first time you remove a hub. Even the my first time without doing this, all I had to do is grind a bevel back into the leading edge of the axle threads where I jacked them up. But a hammer on the axle end is usually needed the first time round. Before you reassemble, lay a bead of grease down on the mating surface so if you have to do it again, it will slide right out next time with no effort at all.
