Review on Enhanced SEO-Optimized SPC Performance 37985 4-Way Ball Joint Separator by Rex Bareham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Requires modification, but very strong.

Probably the most versatile ball joint splitter but I had to modify it to fit the large rear cones on my Mitsubishi Pajero. The split jaw was too narrow to fit the ball joint rubber boot, so I used a grinder to thin and narrow the fork teeth. This allowed the jaws to slide under the rubber boot. The nuts on the cone face inward toward the driveshaft, so there was no way I could hit the cone from that side with a hammer or other leverage. I am attaching photos of the instrument before and after the change. That being said the tool is very strong - I had to use the extension on the end of my socket wrench to apply enough force to cut the taper but to my surprise this tool did it all with ease! Excellent work!
