Acymner Pickle Fork Ball Joint Separator Set — 5-Piece SAE Forks, Chrome-Finished Forged Steel

Acymner Pickle Fork Ball Joint Separator Set is a five-piece, forged-steel tool kit designed to quickly and reliably separate ball joints, tie rods, and pitman arms on cars and light trucks.

Whether you're a home mechanic or a professional tech, this kit gives you multiple fork sizes plus two striking handles so you can tackle common suspension and steering disassembly jobs without improvising. Each fork is heat-treated and chrome-finished for strength and corrosion resistance, and the handles are built to work with both hand and air hammers for versatile removal options.

How does this set speed up suspension and steering repairs?

The kit reduces downtime by offering the right fork for different joint sizes and two handle styles so you don’t need to chase compatible tools. Using a correctly sized separator minimizes extra hammering and avoids damage to surrounding components.

• Five SAE fork sizes cover common ball joints, tie rods, and pitman arms.
• Interchangeable forks work with the included striking handle or air-hammer adapter.
• Knurled handles give better grip for faster, controlled strikes.
• Chrome finish helps prevent rust during storage between jobs.

Which vehicles and parts will this fork set work with?

This kit is intended for most passenger cars and light trucks where standard SAE-sized ball joints, tie rods, or pitman arms are used. It’s not vehicle-specific but covers many common sizes to make the tool set broadly useful.

• Track rod fork 11/16" for smaller tie rod ends.
• Ball joint fork 15/16" for mid-size joints.
• Pitman arm fork 1-1/8" for larger steering components.
• Suitable for typical domestic and import cars and light trucks that use SAE-sized components.

What materials and design features ensure long service life?

Each fork is forged and heat-treated to increase toughness and resist bending under repeated impact. A chrome plated finish adds corrosion resistance, and knurled handles protect the thread area while improving handhold during use.

• Forged, heat-treated steel construction for strength and resilience.
• Chrome plating to reduce rust and extend tool life.
• Knurled striking handle prevents slippage and guards threads from damage.
• Adapter handle sized for air hammer use to cut manual effort on stubborn joints.

How should I use the included handles safely and effectively?

Choose the handle that matches your striking method: the 7-3/4" knurled handle for conventional hammer use or the 6-3/4" adapter for an air hammer. Seat the correct fork behind the joint, support nearby parts, and apply steady, controlled strikes or pneumatic force until the joint separates.

• Use the knurled striking handle with controlled hammer blows to avoid excess impact.
• Fit the adapter handle to an air hammer for faster removal of seized joints.
• Support arms or tie rods to prevent unintended bending or damage.
• Wear eye and hand protection when striking metal components.

Who is this for: The Acymner Pickle Fork Ball Joint Separator Set is aimed at DIY mechanics, hobbyists, and professional technicians who need a compact, durable collection of separators to handle common steering and suspension disassembly tasks. If you work on passenger cars or light trucks and want a reliable set of forged forks with both manual and pneumatic striking options, this kit is made to cover those routine jobs efficiently.
