Message	I'll swing by an auto store and see about getting the ball joint separator kit. It just surprised me b/c so many people swore that hitting it on the side should case the tapered fitting to jar loose and just drop straight down. I hit it fairly hard a few times, so I don't think hitting it even harder is the answer.
