OK, so i'm taking off the front spindles of my wrecked P5 to put on my LX. (among other things) I have disconnected the sway bar, sturts tierod ends, tension bolt where the ball joint mounts and drive shaft from the spindle. Manually using forks i can get the spindles to come off about 1/2-3/4 the way off. Right now the top of the lower ball joint is sitting half way out of the hole it mounts to on the spindle, and i cannot get any more leverage with the forks. Any suggestion to get them the rest of the way off?(shrugs)

Find something that is longer than what you have right now to give yourself

more leverage.
