wanted ball joint puller for 87 accord, where to find??
 

could somebody point me to a place online where i can find a cheap ball
joint puller for my 87 accord. if it can also remove tie rods that would be
great too. i have tried using a seperator fork and i feel that they cause
too much damage with the ball joint. i have the honda shop manual and they
say honda makes one with the part number 07gac-se00100 but i dont know where
to find this or any other ball joint puller/remover. please help me out.
thanks.
ps i dont care if its a low quality tool because i will only use it a couple
of t imes.

I have had good success at using a three point gear puller. Once you get
pressure on the ball joint, smack the side of the ball joint with a hammer
and it will break loose with no damage to the ball joint. I have changed
three different drive axles using this tool. I don't own a separator fork
and never will.

If you live in Canada you can go to any Canadian Tire store and they will
lend you one for free. You just have to leave a deposit which is returned to
you when you return the tool. I understand that some automotive stores in
the States also have this service.
