Broke Upper Ball Joint
I have a broken upper ball joint, the ball with the tapered shaft and threads at the bottem is all that is remaining. I can not figure out how to remove this part. I tried using a pickling fork but it is to wide to catch the ball well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Take a big hammer and whack it on the side/end of arm where the ball joint stud goes threw. And always wear safety glasses. Let us know how it goes. MT

Re: Broke Upper Ball Joint
Heated the piss out of it with some torches and stuck a open end wrench around the stud and put the pickling fork on top of that. Gave me enough leverage to pop it out. Just needed a bit of heat.
