Front top suspension arm removal

Can anyone recommend a tool/method to split the top ball joint ?

It's too big for my ball joint splitter.

Thank you

Confused Last time I removed the front upper arm IIRC I positioned a lever under the arm and used the hammer method to break the taper - didn't have any issues with it Thumbs Up
