I've got a set of struts that are off my car that I want to remove the balljoints from. These are the 911 type Boge struts that are not the clinch nut type. The pins are removed. Should the balljoint just pull off or is it pressed in. Any tips on removing them would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kev

once the pin or bolt is gone... a few taps with a rubber sledge (or slowly up the hammer size) to the a arm.. should knock the bj out.

i have the ball joint socket if you need to take ball joints off the a arm.

They are not pressed in. I usually replace them if I remove them. In such a case I don't care if I tear up the boots. I use a pickle fork.
