are you looking for a off the counter solution? or do you have some resources to build something from scrap.
the loaner tools from parts shops dont work as it is - the reaction cups dont fit due to the odd shape on the control arm boss where the joint is mounted.
You can either make a cheap tool like I did, or make an adapter for the parts store tool and use it.
I have seen a very caveman way too online - it involved hammering out the joint using a Thor sized hammer and using a small trolley jack to push a new joint in with careful tapping - It did work - but I would not advise it to someone as a first time DIY.
