PS: Took me half a day to pop the control arm ball joint. The HFT ball popper works if the ball pin is above the hole, but not when it's flush mounted to the hole as for the Leaf. So, we either weld a pin on the ball joint (probably bad idea) or a pin on a custom popper.
We might end-up with a custom control arm. Expensive but necessary to drive in a city with heartless overzealous meter maids, who give $108 ticket an hour after the accident.
My friend in Vegas can do wonder with metals.
