Jeff,
There is more than one type of ball joint splitter and they come in different 
sizes.  I have one where I wind a bolt into it and it thus 'splits' the 
joint.  There is a 'technique' that involves the use of 2 hammers but other 
than saying belt it with the hammers I don't know how to describe it.
