get a ball joint separator from like autozone or w/e, or you can rent one, and drive the end of it with a hammer to pop the joint out. just wedge it where it will separate the tie rod end from knuckle

Re-using the tie rod end? If not beat it out with a hammer. If so beat on the knuckle close to the tie rod end or what he said is the best way.
