This is a procedure to release stubborn seized ball joint, and it is applicable for independent suspension such as MacPherson strut. The gap between spindle or steering knuckle to Lower Control Arm (LCA, suspension arm) is widened, when suspension arm is jacked up by hydraulic jack. A screwdriver is inserted into the gap. Then the hydraulic jack is lowered instantly. The gap between spindle and suspension is narrowed and screwdriver is pinched in between. So the screwdriver will push ball joint out of the clamp.
You can hear rattle sound when ball joint is being released.
Ball joint cotter pin has been released and the crown nut or castle nut is loosened prior jacking the suspension.
