I just took a look at that tool, sorry - my apologies for not seeing it's kind of the inverse of mine. Do the wrap on the axles from both sides, then on the last side that you did hit inwards, fasten the tool to the end of the axle shaft and set the screw just against the backing plate. Then go hit the opposite axle shaft and see how much clearance has developed.

Yeah, the inner seals can be pesky, I did them on 34 my a while back and they are in twice as deep as yours because it uses a double row of bearings. Just be patient, you'll get it out. Outward facing jaws on the impact tool should do it, but if worst comes to worst, drill two small holes in the seal for sheet metal screws and grasp them to pull it out, but if you do this take special care to get all the drill turnings out.
