Pipe trick. It's been mentioned several times on here, but NOBODY remembers it until it's too late!!! Seriously, if you are reading this as your research and haven't started your cv disassembly yet STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND WATCH THIS VIDEO!!!!

The pipe isn't strictly necessary, but you do need something that will square the cage to the axle upon impact, and some amount of room for the axle to fall through. I rigged up a part of the wheel bearing on some plates, set up on my press.

Here is the relevant post on my build thread.

I remember seeing this before and never being able to find the YouTube link again, THANKS!

I really think this technique should be added to the FFR manual. Sure would save a lot of grief. Maybe FFR could even provide a piece of tube for the job, couldn't cost much and it would really improve the build experience.
