That puller kit is sold in pieces by snap on. what is pictured there is about 800.00. I can do everything with that set up incld pulling drums. There are similar CHEAPER things out there but your mileage may vary how they hold up. Lifetime guarantee on these. Buy it once and done, and for professional use its the only way i would go.
If you want the part #'s on each piece let me know
I even have longer extensions for doing axle bearings on the newer style iron.
Searching Ebay with the part numbers may net you a good deal on some of it. I buy some snap on off there and turn them in for new stuff. -
$800, yikes, I had no idea. It would be silly to purchase that for a 1 time fix. I will need to look around for something. Snyders is cheap but from what I gather it is cheap.Comment

I like the puller set Vince posted several years ago. More affordable for the hobbiest. I do not remember the part number. I beleive it was made by Proto. While I only will grudgingly buy anything from Proto due to some dirty selling tactics by the dealer and school administration to some students while in tech school I would buy it based on its usefullness.

This is a proffesional set which will pull hubs, any type of differential or trans bearing, sector worms, axle bearings on newer vehicles etc. unlimited uses for powertrain purposes. The extension rods screw into one another to make a longer length.
The part numbers are all pictured for easy reference.
There are cheaper similar set ups like this available, but your mileage may vary...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

So with working on these early models, like any other car/truck I work on daily, I find myself needing specialty tools that I end up investing in to have and use.
I've already been shopping around for a banjo hub puller, although I have ideas on modifying an extra pitman arm puller I have. But I've been looking into spring spreaders, which got me to thinking...

Can anyone recommend a half way decent SAE tap and die set. I do NOT want metric and don' mind paying for a good quality set.03-30-2018, 12:52 PM -
I tried to get a replacement for a broken craftsman ratchet, Loews won't replace..They sell only boxed sets. anyway maybe that is a sign of things to come. What is a good brand of tool? Snap on is just too expensive.10-17-2018, 04:59 PM -
With few exceptions, I go out of my way to buy USA tools over buying imports. When I use my tools on my cars, I need them to fit right and to last. Maybe you buy tools the same way..
I recently placed an order with Grainger's. The item illustration showed "Made In USA". When the item arrived it was "made in china". I called Grainger's on it. Basically they said, "the...05-02-2018, 04:26 PM -
HOW TO FREE UP RUSTED FASTENERS
We grew up in the northeast, where the road salt in the long winter was deeper than the snow, and we were fed rust flavored Gerber Baby Food and learned to like it. Example, brake lines on any car lasted no more than 3 years.
Accordingly, we had to develop strategies to deal with rusted fasteners. And they were ALL rusted.

I have a spare engine for my car that I think is good. This winter I plan to tear it down and see. I want to measure and make note of every part so I know what is good, how good it is, and what is bad and needs replaced. I haven't looked yet but I'm sure I can find all the specs and tolerances of the various parts, I might already have that in one of my books somewhere.
What I want to...10-02-2019, 02:04 AM -
I was just boxing up somewhere around a thousand 78 RPM records to sell,and saw some Edison records in a pile.They are about 1/4 thick,so they are easy to spot.Between them was a copy of,Henry's Made a Lady out of Lizzie.I've never heard it,but I've heard of it.Is it worth having cleaned up and copied onto CD,or is it just something that's already been done that I can buy cheap anyway?I did just have...01-07-2019, 11:32 AM -
I need to get back into selling on ebay. I have been using the Windows app that eBay provides for free.
I am selling a wide variety of what is laying around my house. So I am not constantly listing the same thing. I have Windows and MacBook computers. I use an Iphone.
Can people please share their experiences with both phone Apps and PC based apps.
Keep in mind I am...01-17-2020, 02:26 PM -
I have a couple of Model T's and while I know quite a bit about them, I know very little about Model A's. But I hope to own an A someday...... soon.
Since my wife will be driving this car, could you answer a couple of questions for me please?
Is there a synchromesh kit available for the gearbox? Or will she, like the rest of us, have to get used to the double de-clutch/crash method of...10-20-2019, 12:09 AM
