Make a puller or use a puller with some really long bolt/all thread. Pretty easy.
DO NOT smack the yoke unless you use some type of soft hammer.

I used a 2 jaw puller, nothing fancy. Works great unless you leave the pinion nut on

Steering wheel puller works, use two opposing U joint strap bolt holes..
I've also had great success removing the pinion nut, soaking the end of the pinion shaft down with penetrating oil, letting it sit and coming from the back side with an air chisel using the round flat faced attachment. The vibratory action rattles it right loose real quick and hurts nothing.
I have used a vibration damper puller to remove the yoke from the pinion. Some of the aftermarket gears have a coating on the pinion that makes the bearings and yoke harder to install and remove.
