Hit the spindle on the side where the balljoint goes in.

i used a bearing puller on mine and pushed the ball joint through.

Hit the spindle. It will jar it loose then it should come right out

Ive used a picklefork before but you have to be real careful not to rip the boots, The spindle trick works also, so does the bearing puller either way is fairly easy.

Just put the nut back on a few threads take a hammer or rubber hammer and tap on the nut till it pops free
