What is a way to separate the steering arm from a drag link?

One way is to use a "pickle fork". A decent auto supply should have them. But it can be hard on the rubber seals.

A good way is with a wood splitting wedge between transmission housing and steering arm behind drag link end,after the nut has been loosened a few turns.Then wedge it in and hit the steering arm with a BFH to knock it loose.No damage to anything and easy to get it off = smiles.

Pickle fork made it real easy.

If you're going to the trouble of disconnecting them wouldn't you put in new seals anyway? I know I would.
