Worked great! on Suspension Tools

Did exactly what it was supposed to do. The build quality was good. The price was definitely worth it! I'm glad I finally got it.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • All right

If you're looking at this, you probably need this tool

Simple and efficient, as all good tools should be. Another high quality OTC product at a good price. If you have ever removed a reverse/reverse gear or similar final clutch in a transmission then you will find this tool very useful. I have a shop press and it's still a lot better as it gives room for my hand to loosen the locking ring - a shop press isn't that much!

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Although frustrating to use, I was still able to get the job done. I'm not sure there's a good one-size-fits-all solution, but it's worth noting that you may need to get creative with using this tool if you're working with a particularly…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Updates

Works fine with a little adjustment.

I bought this to use with a 2001 Honda Civic drivetrain. The only problem was that one of the clutches was smaller, meaning the two arms couldn't move close enough to compress the recoil spring. By simply sharpening the welds I got closer and it worked fine. The only other problem was that the nut and washer didn't go through the center splines. This meant I had to remove the nut and then fully tighten it again. But for all other clutches on big waves it fit and works perfectly. However, it…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Minor issues
