I think you are going at the ball joint. Put those back in and look for the bolt that is connecting that straight piece of metal that comes out from the middle of the car and connects to the bottom of the shock and then to the place where the brakes are.

Re: Axles (menkio)
you can also spray some p & b blaster down in there and tap the side of it with a mallet as your letting it down. the vibration along with the weight of the car should break it free.
If that doesn't work you could apply some heat to it with a propane torch and do the same as previously mentioned. this is usually a last resort because you'll end up melting the boot and having to buy a new one
