Review on Efficient Powerbuilt 648619 Silver Pilot Bearing Puller: Ultimate Solution for Smooth Bearing Removal by Shalom Germann

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Waste of money best in tools and equipment

I needed to remove a pilot bearing from my International 484 tractor flywheel and the puller slipped out 4 times without pulling the bearing out. I filed the edges of the pull jaws flatter due to the chamfer they have and it still slipped out. Luckily after removing the flywheel I was able to knock the bearing off the back of the flywheel with a 3/4" galvanized pipe socket and a hammer. I guess I can't return the puller as I filed the jaws like other buyers. I would recommend the best puller if you are serious about pulling out the pilot bearing, if the bearing wasn't built into the flywheel I would fill it with grease and bread and let the hydraulics do the work buy this puller.

Pros
  • Manufactured to be the most reliable tools on the market today
Cons
  • Not automatic
