Does what it's supposed to do

I use it for rear wheel bearings and it works well. The material seems to be of good quality, no problems so far. Removes wheel bearing seals in just a few strokes. Works well for many other applications and also with other adapters.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • incredible price

This is a durable tool set with a nice carrying case.

Works great, durable tool, tightens various types of bearings without having to buy additional parts at expensive prices. Both of my rear wheel bearings blew out within a few minutes. This is a good tool and I will recommend it to my friends and family.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Poor tool, doesn't do what it says on the tin

This is not a quality tool for repeated use. I practically destroyed the blind bearing puller the first time I used it. I'm not new to the game either. None of the bearing pullers will fit my rear axle on my 2010 Tahoe. I had to use a universal blind bearing puller and it won't last multiple jobs.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...

Good quality tool - puller

Did a quick job pulling out wheel bearings on my 2000 z71. I had to use three hooks because they don't have the right size round part that you tuck behind the bearing. 3 good hard hats and it was out. With 180,000 on the truck I was impressed. Good quality tool. Would give 5 if he had a right size round extractor.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Update available

I am not sure where it is made.

. I also ended up using a hook to gently pry the differential cover off the pumpkin as it comes covered in silicone from the factory. I'm not sure how much I'll use for other things, but if you have the tools you can fix all sorts of things.

Pros
  • . Very good price.
Cons
  • . All right.

perfect for DIYers!

Looks high quality and reliable. I tested this slide hammer kit. ). And wow, this thing has made my life easier. 3-4 shots with a striker and bearings, clips, gaskets were knocked out. It only lasted a few minutes. I've never used a slide hammer, so don't worry if you're in a similar situation. can you do that For the money I highly recommend this product. You save time and nerves.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

it did the job very well.

Only used once on a 97 f150 rear axle bearing. Now I could use the loan tool and save money. But once I used the loan tool, it was a joke. Never again for me with a loaner. Now when I'm working on a vehicle that needs a special tool, I buy it. The money I saved by doing it myself more than justified the purchase. And who knows, with the number of family cars I work on, it will be used again. I was impressed with the quality of this product. I had to hit the slide hammer several times every…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
