I had one side come out, the other size wouldn't budge. I had to cut the ball joint off of the flca, and hammer the insert out with a socket. I tried to just knock it off with a hammer, chisel, pb oil, and other things but I didn't want to ruin the insert, and since I was replacing the lcas anyways it didnt matter.

Here is the insert I was talking about stuck on my lca, this lca was replaced within the last few months, I was just switching them out for extended ones, and I installed the kit 2 weeks ago and never drove on it, so rust or old parts wasn't the issue.

There is no need to cut anything. The idea of a tapered shank it that it does seat in the insert so it is perfect that it did. Using the correct tools will ensure there are no issues removing it. Ie. http://www.oem-tools.com/products/show/25297
