Posted by JT on September 09, 2001 at 21:05:49:

I'm stuck! I don't know what else to do and I surely can't drive my car now. I'm in the middle of replacing the thrust arm with a new lemforder/750iL setup, and I can't get the old ball joint off. Is there a trick to this? I used the directions on Bruno's site but the pickle fork doesn't work. I don't have a tie rod puller and I don't have a Bently. Can anyone please tell me what my options are, or if I overlooked something.

TIA
