i am replacing most of my lower suspension compnents. today i pulled the knuckles off and the lower ball joint is so rusted in that you cant even tell where it ends and the knuckle begins. i was wondering what i should do to get it out.

 

the rust or the balljoint?

 

ball joint

 

get yourself a ball joint splitter and a big hammer and have at it. its pretty self explanetory of how it works. or just hit the side of the balljoint with a hammer making sure not too hit the threads.
