Thanks to my son the wiki editor here is an article that should cover what you need! We found this after 3 days of beating with a sledge hammer!

Check the articles section under 3rd generation. Look for the replacing ball joint article. It has lots of pictures. This is what I used when I did my ball joints. If your lucky it will pop right out. I alternated putting pressure on each bolt head. I also used a wobble extension as it allowed me to get better alignment for applying pressure. This works best with two people, one turning the wheel, the other moving the socket and extension. Use lots of good penetrating fluid. Just follow the pictures and you should not have any problems. Good Luck!
