My ball joints are very stubborn. I tried a pipe wrench and they don't budge. Is there a specific tool that goes in the slots on the bottom ring to make removal easier? I haven't given up on the idea of driving to Okteenerfest yet.

Get the socket and a really mean 1/2" impact, put the arm on the floor, push the gun into the nut with your body weight, pull the trigger..
