I've got a quill swap to do and I'm stuck. Is there a knack, or something I'm missing, when separating the quill from the stem ?

Bolts out - check
Elastomer removed - check
Nothing impeding stem movement- check

Bit of pry persuasion - check. No result.
An assertive tap with a rubber mallet and pry persuasion- check. No result.

I don't want to wreck it, obviously.

Am I being thick? Why won't it separate?
