It's good to hear that you were successful John. I have a question. How did you avoid damaging the end of the threaded balljoint shaft with your whacks with the sledge hammer? Please don't say "I put a nut on it" because I found that once the joint is released the nut couldn't be removed due to the shaft rotating!
