eek.. murphy's law. 
Good luck with the ball joint replacement TJ! Could be worse.. if it were @justnspace, he would have torn the boot, mushroomed the bolt, pulled the ball joint out of the socket, and seized the puller over the arm and bolt.

That's the backstory to why he needed to pop LBJ in the first place

With the fork, you'll definitely need a new LBJ

I think he will need one regardlessly because he took a hammer to the threads and now it is mushroomed so the castle nut wont' go back on.
Just make sure no Vatozone or Advance auto stuff. You will be redoing again in a few thousand miles.
OEM is always a good bet, Moog if they fixed the issue with the bore of the ball joints.

Update***So I did the other side I flipped the castle nut this time, lined up the pitman puller and turned it until it popped! no damage to the threads this time it was easy.
