ball joint seperator.. you can rent one from autozone.. or you can use the fork style joint seperator if you don't plan on reusing the upper arm.

i didn't re-use mine, so i used the fork style one..

a press is a press, it's a machine that press out/press in part(joints, rotor, seized part, suspenion bushing, etc.

honda only sells them on piece(with the uca), when my ball joint went bad, i had them replaced by the pair.
