Long story short, my drivers rear lower control arm is no longer useful and needs replacing. I have taken off all the bolts on it, but the one where it attaches to the hub right below the driveshaft will not come out. I took off the nut on it, expecting it to drop out, but it won't budge. Its the one that has some sort of ball/universal joint on it allowing free range of motion. Please help.:confused:

Sometimes this is a pain in the butt. Have your friend hold the arm and you yank on the spindle/hub. Or hold the spindle/hub and kick off the rlca. You could always rent a puller kit from somewhere like kragen as well...you dont really need it though. :)

you hammer the hole on the side where the bolt goes through
