 I replaced the ball joint yesterday.   I used the jaw type tool.  Had to 
get it from Napa, wasn't available from Auto zone  or Advanced.  Paid about 
$5 extra for the convience of get it now.  21.00.
Popped right out no problem.
Auto Zone did have the pickle fork type tool for $10.00  or free rental with 
15.00 deposit.
The replacement (Tiawan), ball joint  threaded stem was about a 1/4 shorter 
than the original, so the nut is flush with the end of it.

Cheers,

Al Salvatore
