Ive got motor apart now but cant get armature out...any tips?

There are 3 screws on the end bell that secure the bearing into place. You need to remove those screws to be able to slide the armature out.

Again, view these videos showing typical disassembly were on your previous thread:

Is the armature stuck in the axle but you were able to get the outer case off?

If so, things could get more involved. Rust will often cause the splined shaft to stick together. They key is to spray PB Blaster into the spline area, and let it sit for a day or so.

Then with a block of wood and a heavy hammer rap the bearing end in once to hopefully break the rust free. Then try to wiggle and pull it out. If no success check out this thread:

Or this one:

This has to be done whether you can repair the motor or need to get a new one. Put NeverSieze on the splines when reassembling.

Ive got motor removed from cart and outer case removed. I cant remove armature from motor housing ...using pb blast, 2x4 to hold in place above ground and a hammer and pin to try and un-seize the armature

It seems impossible but it will go. Good luck!
