Yeah the harbor freight version, it is very nice and around $20'ish. You may have to use a grinder to widen the jaws slightly to better handle the LCA ball joint ends. But it may nit be 100% necessary. I was able to do one without widening the jaws, and the other was so frozen I had to.pound it with a pickle fork and a sledge hammer. Luckily I was replacing it
