If you mean a ball joint separator, the best type is the one meant for small HGV's or vans. The cheap ones from accessory shops are intended for more puny vehicles!

Separating joints with a prybar can cause distortion.

Mine was made by Sykes-pickavant and bought for £12.00 from ebay. New ones are about £70 -120 new dependant on manufacturer..
