steering arm removal (4x4)

[benoit454]

Ok I'm almost lost and tried alot of things to remove the factory steering arm on my 86 k10. 'm trying to take it off to replace it with the raised arm in the lift kit i bought. I removed the 3 nuts and the drag link or big tie rod off of it, and tried beating and prying on it with no luck.

Any ideas?

I know they have thoose wedges in them or something but do they need to come out if so how? Or can they just stay in place and when the arm comes off the knuckle they'll come out easier?
