lower ball joint

hey all, im trying to replace my ball joints and im stuck on getting the lower one out. i took the lock nut off, but it is threaded into the rest of the wheel assembly from the inside..how do i get this off so i can press it out?

thanks

Search threads here. You've got to press them out on the vehicle. See PM.

youve got the upper out, use your ball joint press through the top and also a little heat, not a alot fo heat before to loosen up anything and some pb blaster, smack it with a mallet a bunch( the c, be careful, maybe a deadblow) and let it cool off a bit. then if the press dont work use an old axle shaft throught the top with a sledge...a freind or two...
