I never did figure out how the ball stud came off my original struts. The replacements I bought (iirc StrongArm # 4709) They came with new ball studs.

I believe you said "from the car side"...
If I'm not mistaken, you will have to use a 13mm open-end wrench...
Its a little troublesome, but you will get it out...
