Yes there is. It's an OTC 7249 Ball Joint Press. It is also good for pressing unversal joints. All you need is the press, a pair of snap ring pliers, a 1-1/8" socket and a torque wrench to do the ball joints once you have the spindle off. Were you going to replace your front axle u-joints while you have everything apart? Oops, I almost forgot you will also need a Snap-On S9613 socket to torque the adjustment sleeve on the upper ball joint when you put it back together. I would coat that sleeve with plenty of anti-sieze compound just in case you every have to do this again. Read the directions that come with the ball joints and make sure that you torque everthing correctly. I put ball joints in my '72 K20 years ago and they are still tight. I believe that Moog now makes the upper ball joints with grease fittings in them. I would definately get these.
