Mild Steel in Tool Kits

Make no mistake. It's not hardened steel. He will bow. And be very careful if you plan to use an air hammer shaft! After one use I wanted to pull it out of the air hammer and it got stuck! I had to cut the shaft off, disassemble the jackhammer and pull out the rest of the shaft in the opposite direction. Hammer blow, the bullet hit the end of the barrel and he didn't advance. The forks did their job, but I wouldn't use an air hammer attachment. Or buyers beware!

Versatile and durable.

If you repair your car yourself, this set is a must. I just used it on my wife's BMW 330i after replacing the tie rod ends and wishbones. It works as advertised, without this tool removing tie rods and ball joints would be nearly impossible. This tool is durable, I know this because I had to use a sledgehammer to knock out the ball joints and it didn't damage the tool. The carry case is ideal for keeping your tools in one place. I can highly recommend this remedy.

Pros
  • Hands-free kit
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Good set - instead of him she hit the knuckle with a sledgehammer

Good set of three pickle forks. After hitting and prying the tool for some time to separate the knuckle from the lower ball joint, the tool broke at the point where the single handle threads into the yoke. However, by that time I had also bent another brand's marinating fork, so I don't blame that tool for this error - it had taken a couple of hours at that point. Incidentally, what finally helped loosen the knuckle from the ball joint, which was 'sticking' with 14-year-old rust, was a little…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Transparency
