So I'll use the excuse that i am overly tired. But I'm at a loss on how to get the trilink mount off the ball joint. I loosened the top bolt and nut but that's where I'm stuck. Any hints or tips?

I’ve had luck removing the whole assembly and work with it off the jeep
Use the pickle fork with a large screwdriver wedged in the gap

Keep in mind I don’t run the sway bar so it’s easier to acces the bolts

Most of the time its just way easier to remove the tri-link and bracket together. Most times they are rusted together so get it all out where you can work on it and see what you are doing
