For my 47 which has essentially the same axle it needed a 7/8-14 thread. Bought a coupling nut and bolt in that size. Drilled a hole in the bolt and threaded that for my slide hammer. Threaded the bolt into the coupling nut and nut to the axle then attached the slide to the bolt. Micky moused but it pulled the axle out with no difficulty. Because the bearing cup is not quite a press fit but is somewhat tight in the axle housing it does take a decent size slide hammer to get it moving.
