Hit the steering knuckle (not yours)and keep tapping, and eventually the bj should fall out. I learned this from an old mechanic years ago, and it has helped a few times, that is to tap not the part being removed, but the part that is holding it. In the case of the lower bj, gravity is working for you so with a little luck, it should fall right out. It has worked for me a few times (in fact recently) when I did not expect it to.
