Ball Joint help please???

So I'm trying to pull my ball joints, but obviously don't have the right tools or any way to get to the store but walk. I know there is no EASY way, but I need to figure something out. Thanks guys.

there is no way you are going on press them out or install them without a ball joint press. Only ones I'd been able to do without are mid 00's Ford Explorer. Those can be knocked out with a 32oz hammer, then use a ball joint press adapter and hit back in place,...

I would walk/get a ride to autozone and rent a ball joint press. Make life a heck of a lot easier on yourself
