use a bigger hammer. My 4lb mini sledge works well. I had to hit the steering arm on opposite ends to kind of rock it back and forth to get it loose. Once it was loose, just keep wacking it til it comes all the way off

I sprayed mine with pb blaster for 2 days then i took a sledge hammer to it for 2 hour's. Its not fun. At first when i couldnt get it off. I took it to a chevy dealer and they told me after taking 75.00 of mine that they couldnt get it off. A DEALER STUPID. o yea that was the dealer in maryland (denton) Never again. They are STUPID
