please help. i'm trying to take it in to get a new bearing put in the steering knuckle and hub, but i don't know how to detach the tie rod and lower swing arm. please help thanks

 

For the tie rod I use this exact tool:

For the LCA balljoint I use a small, heavy hammer and smack the knuckle @ the balljoint stud area until it breaks loose. Dont use a pickle fork unless you plan on replacing the balljoint because it will most likely tear up the boot or seperate the boot from the balljoint.
