Can anyone tell me how to get the green CV housing off the driver side of the GV diff? I have tapped the shaft out of the other side, but still can't get the housing apart.

Sorry it's not downsized, I'm having trouble resizing and uploading images

pry it out with a flat bladed screw driver, be gentle
EDIT: in between the housing & the CV cup.

put the bolts back on your centre. Its likely the axle is binding in the centre.

6 to 8mm is just the spline, you will need to put a lil more force behind it, i've had to flog pry bar's with hammer's to get em out..
& as Mr Fat said, the center loose like that will put pressure on the shaft. not allowing it to come out..
