I've got my 98 Sport strut which I broke a ball joint in a while ago. I removed the cover and tried to get it out, but couldn't figure it out. So I thought I would ask here before I broke something???

USE A BLIND HOLE FLANGE PULLER/ OR WELD A BOLT IN THE HOLE WHERE THE BALL JOINT GOES THEN TAKE SOCKET AND SLIDE OVER THE BOLT AND THEN TAKE THE NUT FOR THE BOLT AND SCREW IT ON THE BOLT THEN USE IMPACT WRENCH IT WILL PULL THE BALL JOINT HOUSING

forgot to mention sometimes you can pull with a two jar puller attached to a slide hammer and sometimes you can hook your air hose up to the grease fitting and the remains of the ball joint can be blown out with air, but the best way is using a blind hole flange puller
