Upper Ball Joints - SERIOUSLY stuck
So I have read lots of thread and pulled bits from each. I have tried a ball joint separator, a c clamp, a BFH, and even a Ball joint press kit. All have given me literally ZERO results. I was able to get the lowers out without too much work, and that made it easier to get to the upper. (I have taken EVERYTHING off).
Hell I even tried heating it up to see if it had some sort of build-up I could burn off in the sleeve, nothing. I resorted to putting the fork in-between the A-arm and the ball joint and pounding on the spindle with a hi-lift by slamming it into the top as hard as I could. Both sides are the same story, those m-fers are stuck in there. Anyone have tips to get these out? I was hoping to get my Spindles and A-Arms sandblasted and primed today. Now I'd settle for just getting those ball joints out of the top end.
