Default Ball joint replacement

One of my outer ball joints is broken and thus needs replacement, i'm looking to buy a tool to do this.

Should i go with a pickle fork or a ball joint separator, and what size do i need?

I'm reluctant to go with a pickle fork as i've read some posts with people suffering with this tool, and it's not that much cheaper than a separator.

I'm currently looking at this ball joint separator (22mm hole, 62mm opening):

As for the ball joints themselves, I was planning on buying MEYLE HD, is this a good choice or should i just go with the cheaper ones?

Also, are the inner ball joints also removable? because it seems you can buy them but many sites mention they are not removable...

Any comments are appreciated, thanks.
