I used the Kent Moore splitters the book calls for. The gotcha with the book is that if you look in the wheel stud section, they say one ball joint tool. When you look under another section, it calls for a different splitter.
I bought both. I really only needed the one splitter for the ball joints, the one listed under the wheel stud is used to push the studs out.
I'm not sure about the sear tools, but I went with the kent moores, and found that there is no problem pushing the ball joints out, no marks left on the arms, or the upright. The kent moores are spendy though.
If you're replacing stock for stock, the front doesn't need to come apart, but if you do like some of us, and put in the ARP studs (longer), you have to pull the front hub as well.
I bought my 34mm socket from snap on, and had to get it in an impact format, as they don't make a standard socket in that size.
