Use this tool or keep bashing. First time it took me about 45 seconds, next car I did it on took about 10 minutes, but stick with it.

If you partialy undo the nut off the bolt that you have hit upward (the pin of the ball joint) and strike the forged stub axle where the pin is pressed into ffom the sides, it will jar the pin and after a few goes it should just pop apart. Make sure you only partially undo any nuts especially from the bottom pin (spring is loaded against these components) or the parts will come apart suddenly with risk of causing injury.
