I can't seem to get the ball joint nut off, I was wondering if I should just cut the nut with a dremel or go and buy an impact wrench and compressor. I am putting in x2's so I don't need the old ball joint. What do you guys think?

Well if you're replacing them anyway, I don't see why hacking it off would hurt anything.

Nothing a 24" breaker bar couldn't handle.

I used an 18" pipe on my 1/2" drive. Worked like a charm
