Here's my own trick to remove the ball joint...

Take a 14mm open end wrench and put the "crow's foot"
between the balljoint nut and the spindle/hub.  Basically
straddle the BJ bolt.  Then, loosen the BJ nut back against
the wrench to "press" the balljoint out.  It'll break free with a bang,
but it'll break free!

Works every time, and I've done it a LOT!
