Not Worth the Purchase

Based on my observations, the tool is flimsy and not sturdy enough for larger projects... The only advantage is the price, but you get what you pay for..

Pros
  • Affordable
Cons
  • Poor quality

It works, so to speak. with wrench

Bought this 3" wheel bearing bushing for a 2.5 ton Rockwell. Basically it works, let me explain. , so you can use it, but it will want to slip off the nuts when you try to apply the recommended torque (200 ft/lbs) to the wheel bearings during initial installation. It is against slipping. If it fits snugly enough, this wouldn't be a problem. Yes, I have the right size for my application.

Pros
  • Designed for use with 3/4" square drive only MANUAL
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
