HEHE, I was doing exactly that with my truck a couple weekends ago. On that lower one I would try and hit the lower control arm with either a 3lb sledge or bigger if need be. I found that to work better than the separator. Try and hit it as close as you can to the ball joint. On the upper one try the separator. If worse comes to worse, take off the upper control arm and pound it out upside-down on a block of wood with a huge sledge hammer. Oh, and also did you spray the heck out of everything with WD-40 before? I did that, and I had minimal problems.........
