I believe that there were special spacers included in the "dealer Pantera special service tools" kit for this originally when the car was new?

Yes.

I haven't seen a kit offered for sale in 20 years, if ever? Hard to remember at this point.

A complete kit was on eBay and another one on Craigslist a couple of months ago.

The removal tool for the upper rear ball joint is nothing more than a piece of heavy wall tubing (see pic on left).

The installation tool consists of another piece of heavy wall tubing that has an angle cut (center pic), and a "cap" that fits the ball joint (left pic). This "cap" could have easily been a piece of heavy wall tubing, or even a socket of the appropriate size.
