Default ball joint removel

Alright, i know theres a thread out here somewhere to remove balljoints but i can't find it. if someone knows what im talking about id appreciate a link, otherwise im trying to get my ball joints out my 4x4 and i got a pitnam arm puller, its wrapped on my steering knuckle and im pushing up on the bolt. but its starting to tear thru my knuckle. am i doing something wrong? also my book says to take the steering knuckle to the shop and let them do it. but my ball joints are(look to be) pressed into my axle, not the steering knuckle? Any ideas?
