how do you remove the spindle? Just curious what the proper way to go about it is. I am looking to replace the ball joints.

Loosen the bolts for the ball joints and smack the part of the spindle where the ball joint goes into the spindle with a hammer. Make sure you jack the car up on the lower control arm so the spring doesnt fly out. You can also use a Pickle fork. I would get a spring compressor to be safe. Dont forget to take the caliper off the spidle so you dont wreck the brake lines.
