heres a faq on replacing lower control arm. he gave up using the fork to remove ball joint and used sludge hammer. prolly bad idea especially if you are keeping ball joint and arm. i think the trick is just to keep hammering fork for a long time.

i see a lot of people use the jack at front axle. have to find the right spot to lift from.

using a fork to release ball joint
