Need to "super penetrant" it for a few days, use something like aerokroil or just plain kroil, tap around on it from time to time and squirt some more penetrant on it. Then using a GOOD pitman arm puller, put the arm/shaft joint under a fair amount of pressure, stand off to one side, and rap the part of the arm between the puller lugs a pretty good, sharp hit with a hammer; maybe take two or three smacks at it, then tighten the puller a bit more, and whack it some more. When it does come off, it may do so with some force, so be careful not to get smacked yourself. Don't try it with any other sort of a puller, 'cause all you'll do is break the puller. Good luck.
