this has worked for me everytime, i loosen all the bolts start them back in and then using an impact socket and short extension. place the socket assembly back on the bolt, i place a prybar against the extension, find a solid spot too wedge it against start the truck and use the power steering to push it out, ive done it several times on 2nd gen trucks

I had good luck with the way benrobert3605 described other than I used a buddy to turn the streering wheel while I carefully held extension, Little pressure on front then back then popped right off. Good luck.
