If space is tight then get a brass drift and use that between the spindle and hammer.

I just saw you responded. Haven't been here in a while. Things have been great for me. Very busy but great ! Working on a bunch of home projects.
I like to take the caliper off first. Before anything else. Just to avoid stretching the rubber brake hose.
You should notice a difference in sound when the ball joint comes loose. I hope you've gotten that all sorted out by now.

I made a little progress tonight, on the driver side, finally.
I got the outer tie rod end disconnected from the spindle and removed the strut hardware, then managed to get the spring out without killing myself.
I’m not confident I got the ball joint moved enough but I assume (hope?) I can find a way to sort that out once I get the old LCA hardware out and pull the LCA and spindle out.
