Get a ball joint tool (looks sort of like a gear puller with fixed arms,=
  many auto parts stores will loan one to you).  Use it to put pressure =
on the joint.  If that does not suffice, hit the control arm with a hamm=
er while the tool is in place.

Sounds like one of those deals where perseverance, patience and penetrat=
ing oil/heat are needed.... Took 30 years for them to get that way, it m=
ight take a few weeks

to get them unstuck.... ;-)

Hey friends, I need help please. The ball joints on my Triumph GT6 proje=
ct are severly stuck. They've been rusted in place for over 30 years - p=
erhaps 40+ years! And I have tried a 'pickle fork', pounding, penetratin=
g oil, and the torch...all to no avail.

Please tell me your ideas. My '72's suspension is ready to reassemble, e=
xcept for the ball joints. Ideas? Tricks? Experiences? Magic?

Thank you. All advice is appreciated.

-rick
