I installed my tie rod and modern ends. Removed the balls from the steering arms. I took a different route than most. I cut the ball off the arm and then ground the ball end down, thinking the other end was swedged at the factory. I then pressed the balls out from the ball end and they came out easily. No drilling, or even grinding into my arms. I am not sure if that makes sense or not. Pictures in my bucket.
