damn, too bad that broke. why not just use a pickle fork and hammer. wreacks the boot but that doesnt matter if youre going to replace it any way. or you can undo lower shock and hit the lower controll arm really hard with a big hammer or short sledge. thats what i do and it works every time, no damage.
