TODAY is a Great Day to visit our Store and order the parts you need for your truck!
I freaking hate those cone washers... I brought mine to a shop, too. Had to torch them and beat them with a sledge.Any reason why you're separating them? The washers and nuts are NOT re-useable. And they're not cheap either... I wish I just left mine together. I can't remember why I separated them anyways... well live and learn.
I had to take the steering arm off too but i beat it into submission... Do you have the auto locking hubs as well? Or have you already replaced them with manual hubs?
Rust is what causes the cones to stick. When you put it back together, put some grease in there and hopefully that will help if you ever have to take the arm off again.

The last one I ran across that was rusted like that and did not want to come apart, I used a air hammer with a flat blade attached and vibrated it, the cones came out pretty easy after a min. or so.
