I am at the point where I have everything on the driver's side out of the way. Control arm is out, tie rod ball joint is freed from the strut housing. I have pulled back the locktabs on the inner ball joint. Is there any way to get this out of the steering rack without a puller? Bentley says to fit a wrench on there and unscrew. I only have a large water pump style wrench that can fit on there and it sucks. I don't care if it gets trashed because I have all new stuff though. What do I need to do?
