Default 1960 Ball Joint replacement, search and Suggested Spring compressor advice

Having replaced ball joints on another car of this era, this Bonneville is the first where I see the spindle above the lower control arm. Gripping the spindle yanking it in and out I can hear a slight movement in the lower ball joint (very slight) so I suppose it needs to be replaced.

I want to buy a center access spring compressor but wanted to ask if the ones you rent typically work or perhaps this on at rockauto https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...7297&jsn=17297


Also any preferred source for the ball joints as I see the rareparts version and Ames Performance and that's about it - some recommend Moog but I can't find them at all.
