Thanks for the tips, Bob. With what I had handy, I managed to get it back to how it was. My solution was effective but might make you laugh : P
By inserting the broken balljoint upside down, the pipe wrench had plenty of useful edges to bite on at that angle. Luckily there was enough radial torque that the car didn't try to lift at any point. I slide in a 4x4 block of redwood above the control arm, which had enough give so as to not harm the body. 'Worth noting that I wasn't done when I took the picture. As you mentioned, it did need to be counter twisted a few times before it rested where it belonged. Not seeing any cracks, so hopefully this'll be fine until I have the engine out next. (building up another in my spare time) : )
Thanks again,
Ian
