Works as it should.

Does what it says on the tin. Works perfectly. If you have an old Dodge truck with these cone washers, they are easy to remove.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Vulgarity

No more bumps best with axle tool

This tool eliminates hub hitting, hub and axle metal damage, risk of bearing damage and branding your job as a cheap backyard workshop. I recommend this remedy unreservedly.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Almost never

Make sure it's the size you need.

Does the job but less than the description says. The price is too high for this size. The addendum states that the OTCs that I thought were made in the US were made in Taiwan.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Protection

worth buying. - Steering & Suspension Tools

These are useful and worth considering when dealing with axle cones. It's important to understand that they don't pull the cone out of the axle flange, which is the hardest part. These pliers will help remove the cone from the bolt.

Pros
  • Excellent Design
Cons
  • Flaws

It was in the wallet

Trying to remove the tapered washers from the Kodiak rear axle bolts proved an impossible task. After much practical consideration, none of which worked or made any sense at all, this tool looked like the answer, like watching someone remove a conical washer, although my common sense said otherwise. There is no way you would flare out the conical washer screwed into the hole which is pressed against the screw shoulder and hub hole. So maybe I missed something? After spending $35 I waited a few…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen
