Hmmm. If you've already popped the lower ball joint, I'd say bolt the upper A-arm back in (to hold the spindle), unbolt the lower arm and see if you can get anything to loosen up.

I finally freed the trapped strut. I had to remove the entire lower control arm, as stated above. I'm going to do the rears tomorrow, and hopefully I don't run into another 'trapped strut'! Thanks for the help -- I'll post a couple pictures once it's done!
