You need better air/impact gun like what they have at West Covina Nissan. It will come right off. That is the only way to get it off.
Are you replacing the whole LCA, or just the ball joint? Pressing the ball joint in and out requires a press and a ball joint press kit, which is expensive.
Ball joint kit at harbor freight is $100. Press? $200, ball joint $40, labor.. your time spent online... then hammering that upright off (oh... its a party). Believe me, you would be so much better off going back to the dealer.
