Default newage STI lower arm balljoint removal

Just thought id fire this up for anyone who has trouble getting these buggers out from the hub. (not the wishbone, thats easy lol). Had a search through here and found that some people buy or make up pullers. I found an easier way, i apologise for not providing any pictures,

-Basically remove the pinch bolt
-open the knuckle up a bit using a screwdriver and a hammer
-Leave the lower arm attached to the screwed end of the joint.
-acquire a 3-4ft pinch bar
-place it between the knuckle and the wishbone
-boot it down as hard as you can
-pops right out. PB blaster or plusgas will help, but its the shock that gets them out.
No need for a special puller. Hope this helps, I'll try and get some photos uploaded later if i can.
