it's a badly seized u-joint you know you're in for a long fight time for the old heat and beat well at least that's the way it used to be yeah it was news to me too a tool that would help me get the job done in minutes instead of hours Tyger tools heavy-duty u-joint puller has the brute strength to take apart the most seized u joints in minutes designed to work with up to a one-inch impact gun gets the job done fast without damaging the drive shaft jokes joints or bearing cups Plus at the end of the day you're safe from burns and flying shrapnel precision engineered high-grade steel that's built to last this is the original Tiger tool u-joint puller made right here in North America from equalizer introducing Raptor Raptor a quantum leap and Winchell removal designed to dramatically improve the surface adhesion power of the vacuum cup creating a solid base to cut from uses all equalizer wire and cord products like squire 2 and ripcord requires no pumping just power the tool on and watch it draw a constant vacuum raptor uses an omnidirectional ratchet to perform your cut allowing for optimum use even in tight areas the SKF internal bearing puller kits are designed for dismounting bearings from housings where the fit is on the outer ring the pullers are constructed for optimum strength and durability and suit a wide range of bearing bore diameters a sliding hammer allows high impact forces to be applied and is ergonomically designed to enhance user safety the TM IP series has a unique patented SKF design and can help reduce the time to dismount a bearing unlike most internal bearing pullers the spring-loaded extractors can be quickly and easily fitted to the inner ring in just one quick action the TM IC series has an expandable call it design made of high-strength steel and is designed for applications where there is a limited space to grip behind the bearing the OT sees 65 96 brake pad gauge allows for definitive measurement of brake pads to determine their life it's unique design permits measurement of the vehicle without removal of any components in most cases place the tip of the tool against the brake rotor and rotate the gauge finger back against the brake pad backing plate the measurement is displayed on the opposite end of the tool in millimeters or color-coded the OTC brake pad gauge allows you to measure the upper and lower pad thickness on the outboard side and easily measure the inboard side of the brake rotor and caliper to you for removal use these parts of the adapter set the tool can be used with the standard workshop press but when used with the VSC one - 7h hydraulic ram the job can be carried out in situ on the vehicle saving valuable time and effort however for improved clarity we have removed the wishbone from the vehicle assemble the tool as shown then turn the ramp handle clockwise to push out the ball joint now you can dismantle at all remove the ball joint from the wishbone and that completes the removal procedure for installation use these parts of the adapter set push fit the new ball joint then assemble the installation components as shown now press the joint home using either the vse 1 2 7 H hydraulic ram or alternatively a workshop press turn the ram clockwise till the joint is fully engaged the VSC 1 2 7 8 0 5 makes a tedious job quick and easy and that completes the installation procedure you
