Differential rebuild question

I am rebuilding the differential out of a 5th gen Camaro with 1LE package. It is an 8.6"/218 mm IRS rear. I got it almost completely apart and I'm having some trouble getting the pinion bearing races out. I had used a hammer and punch to try to knock them out from their backside. They would not budge. Before I try using a bigger hammer, I thought I would check to see if anyone has done this before and if there is a 'trick' to it like heating up the aluminum housing first.
