Well, im bearing better news.
It finally gave up. The remains of the balljoint got out.
i had a tube going from the upper to lower balljoint (inside swivel) and took it in the press. Applied 1 by 1 ton pressure, heated up the outside of the joint, and when i was at 6tons i said geez, i turned around after my last pump at the press and would you know it, it popped out with a very, big bang with sparks
had a ratchet strap around the swivel so it wouldnt fall down and say adios on the concrete, so i am ready to assemble everything. After i’ve changed the CV Boot, because that did not survive the hub hammering…
