Review on πŸ”§ ATD Tools 3056 Bar-Type Puller/Bearing Separator Set: Convenient 5 Ton Capacity Storage and Carrying Case Included by Wayne Ohlrogge

Revainrating 2 out of 5

They started to build a good instrument

They tried to make good things but gave up in the end. Not sure why, but the nuts that come with them are so light and cheap that they just pop out of the threads when you try to tighten a tight bearing. I went to the hardware store and bought a brand new set of nuts for it and now it works great. I don't know why they do everything else well and then skimp on nuts. Another oddity is that the clamps have nuts on both sides (four total), most others use a solid bolt so there are only two nuts in the kit. This makes it a little tricky to tighten without turning the opposite side, but it works. I suppose it's just a matter of preference. In summary, the set works perfectly. with some help.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • So far so good
