I tell ya, nothing like German Engineering, it's put together to last forever, even if it needs replacemnt you can't take it apart.

I tried hitting the ball joint for the thrust arm out, hiting the housing for it, used an air hammer, nothing is making it budge, I went and bought a pickle fork this morning before I came to work and tried for about 5 mins , but no luck yet, what the heck does it take to pull the ball joint out of it's socket.
