Small and Handy
This is tough as nails. When I got it I couldn't quite figure it out. I knew I would need a pry bar but it didn't come with instructions. The first attempt at using it, the technical mind kicked in immediately and it was simple and effective. Get a long pry bar, strong rod or pipe at least 1.5 times the length of the lower control arm. Instructions: 1. Remove ball joint nut (or slacken if you don't have space) and free up ball joint stud from steering knuckle by your regular method. 2. Hang the hook on the lower control arm (the hole should be below. the side you choose will depend on the shape of the arm to gain more leverage but it will work on either side if you complete the 3rd step properly). 3. Pass your pry bar (or any strong bar/pipe) through the hole. 4. Ensure the other end of the pry bar connects properly with the inned part of the lower control arm, so it won't slip. 5. Pry downward on the handle of pry bar until the ball joint stud is out of the steering knuckle.. (If there was not enough space to remove the ball joint nut before, back it off, all the way at this step, until you can push the control arm down enough.) 6. Pull/push steering knuckle away from ball joint while maintaining a downward force on the pry bar. When reinstalling the arm to the steering knuckle, follow steps 2 to 5. It's a one-man job and there's no more slipping! I was going to buy the other tool that's very long and many times more expensive but I decided to try this first. Buy it!

Quality
Wanted to give it some time before reviewing to test how well made it is. Despite using it hundreds of times, it’s still in great shape, so no issues to complain about. The price was right and it was packaged decently when we got it. Recommended!
