How are you taking axle out by three 12point socket bolts ? If so just hit the hub with a brass or dead blow hammer to brake lose
Yes all the 12 point bolts are out

put a deep 12 point 13mm socket on the bolt head with all the bolts backed about half way out. With the front axle supported and off the ground. with the socket on the bolt head start the jeep (in park, e-brake on) and turn the wheel, the socket will hit the inner C and the power steering will apply the pressure to push the hub out. simple and easy. lots of videos and DIY's about it on u-tube and other sights. no damage to anything.
