Looks like a big "C" clamp, with an adapter that slips in the bottom that has several rings where a spacer can go to allow the ball joint to fall out with the ring sitting on the base of the control arm. The other end of the "C" fits snuggly over the ball joint stud using another adapter. Down pressure on the stud forces the ball joint out.

Got it from JCWhitney.
