A question

Why would you need to remove the lower ball joint if pulling and pressing the bearing with the hub in place ?

I tried with my Harbor Freights but it will not budge, I took a new bearing and matched a plate up with it to be sure it was not too large. I tried PB Blaster and let it soak for 2 days, I tried leaving the harbor freight unit on and very tight and let it set for 2 days to see if it might loosen up...but nothing. It feels like it locked on a solid piece of metal with absolutely no give at all.
