Okay, I got the front strut cartridges replaced ... started on the rear
tonight. I can't for the life of me get the rear balljoint off of the
bottom of the strut housing. The fronts came off easy enough with a pry
bar, but I can't find a good spot for the bar on back. And, I've had no
luck with the trusty pickle fork.
I removed the nut on the bottom of the ball joint. Now, do the two parts
come apart here, or does the plate attached to the bottom of the strut
housing with two bolts come off instead?
Pictures of what I'm talking about:

Thanks in advance for any advice.
