Although this is an older post, NC67CHEV's wisdom lives on. . . .
After applying SIGNIFICANT force on my stuck ball joint with a BFH and pickle fork and not being able to break it loose, I found this thread. So I dug out a 3" grade 8 bolt and the right size sockets, put the joint under pressure, hit it once and it popped right away. EXCELLENT advice. Thank you!
