Put the car on a rack and have the ball joints inspected by a professional if you suspect they are bad. Your car will dart from side to side and handle poorly if they are bad. This is a very dangerous situation so have this looked at ASAP.

Why wont the steering knuckle come free from the ball joints on a 1991 ford explorer?
If you have a factory steering knuckle, ford designed them for the ball joints to not be removable.
