have you checked with your local parts stores?  Many of them have such tools for loan

...Such as Autozone.

Yea, I wasted an hour driving around the local AZ  , O'reilys    and finally NAPA offered to get one from the warehouse to the tune of $70 something dollars. 

Big thanks to Owen in California who is shipping me his socket today! 

CC is a great place to hang!

eh

I got my old rusted ones out using heat, the corner of a crescent wrench and large water pump pliers. If you fiddle around long enough it will work out. Did not have the proper tool.

you should remove the ball joint with the control arms still in the vehicle, if you don't, you have to figure out some way to hold the control arms while removing the ball joints

  Amen brother! Tough to work a pipe wrench with one hand while holding on with the other.

I would have lent you my socket

A word of advise: If 72Challenged ever needs to borrow something, jump on it immediately.  I let him use a ball joint socket, and I just received a beautiful box of cookies in the mail.  Definitely a member you want to do business with. BTW, Thanks Edward.
