Default Which ujoint removal and installation tool is used out there by fellow boaters?

I am removing the ujoints on my bravo one outdrvie and I wanted to know what the easiest tool out there was to work with. I found a kit at at harbor freight called 3-in-1 Ball Joint/U-Joint/C-Frame Press Service Kit and wanted to know if anyone has used this and what their thoughts on it are? Here is the linke below to the site so you can see exactly which one im talking about

All you really need is a 5" vise and a couple of sockets, the Harbor Freight kit will work also.
