yes if you put tension on it like that and then hit it then it will probably spring loose.

The hammer method works waaay better when you hold a real heavy solid object on the opposite side from the hit- firmly press a small sledge against nuckle & rap with a weighty hammer.....PoP!
I used a pickle fork and some heavy banging. It tore up the boot but I didn't care. Sending it out all out for powder coating so all of the rubber has to go. Since your getting it all powder coated that means you have to press the whole ball joint out of the control arm so you'll need new ones anyhow.
True, might as well replace them anyway. If they are the stock ones I'd say they are getting worn. You can buy new rubber boots if you don't replace them. Hans is selling bushings for those control arms also. I don't think he has the rear ones yet but he is ordering some we hope will fit.Quote:
