Just did mine to, borrowed a socket from my neighbor that he modified(grind) to make work. Are you sure the ball joint will not come out with-out removing the threaded sleeve? Should be able to have the top nut off and the bottom almost off and a few good smacks the whole steering knuckle should come off. At least mine did, then the threaded sleeve comes out easy.
