Give the spindle a tap/wack with a hammer where the ball joint goes thru it. Undo the nuts first.  |

get them pressed out as any other nethod can distort the hole there in= one scrap arm. if i remember correctly heritage sell arms with new joints in them, dont work out to bad money wise and the cars not of the road while you wait to get them pressed in.

you will pay someone £40 to press a ball joint in if you can find somone to do it. add to that the £15 for the ball joint and its not bad. I know its the way i do it as fitting the ball joints is a real pain in the arse.
