One other point to replace the roll pin it goes in the beveled side, just tap it until it is flush and you should be ok. In order to drive the pin out strike it from the non-beveled side...

I guess it depends on how long the nut has been on since it will take a 1 1/4 inch socket on my 93 Legacy. I had to use a 3/4 inch braker bar as I ended up breaking the 1/2 inch one,and a fence post for leverage. The car had 180,000 miles on it so I went ahead and replaced the ball joints as well (good decission) and the roll pin that fits the inner joint. They do make a roll pin punch that fits perfect and makes it easy to bang the pin out (by the way if you just use a punch what happens is that it tends to work its way in between the pin, thus spreadingit and making it more difficult to extract). I will say this it is not an easy job and I used a few jacks in order to get the ball joint back in place without removing the strut. I did use a bit of grease in order to get the new ball joint in, the old one had a bit of rust which made it difficult to extract so thinking of the future I used a bit of grease for that purose, hope this helps....
