spindle/knucke removal question

[mobileblaster]

I am trying to remove my spindles for the a arms on a 95 blaster. The top arm has a pinch bolt and was easy to remove. The bottom one is being a pain in the a#$. I have tried several different pullers from the local auto parts stores but all have been to big. I do not want to damage anything. I just want them apart so I can build my front end while my frame is at the powder coater. It will be ready tuesday. In the mean time I cant do anything with my new a arms till I get the old ones apart. Any ideas on how to get it off or where to get the right puller that won't destroy the stock ball joints on the stock a arms. Not that I really need them but would like to salvage as much as I can. Thanks guys,

I used a ball joint separator tool to get mine off. It's a long piece of metal with a forked end that you can buy at like Kragen. I tried some of those pullers they had and none fit right. You stick the forked end between the spindle and ball joint and hit the other end with a hammer until it pops loose. This tool usually breaks ball joint boots though unless you're really careful, but if you have new a-arms then who cares?

I got the spindles off with 0 damage. I sandblasted them today and will paint them in the morning. Thanks for the help.
