My husband got this for his birthday and so far he likes it. He hasn’t had the opportunity to use it yet but that time is coming soon!Heavy and well built.

NO instructions, weak metal clam shell bearing pullers. Unit would have been fine if they made it strong enough.Bought it to pull pinion bearings, which take a good puller. this unit is not that good.

The too is fantastic in every way, ten seconds to remove a carrier bearing without damage, ditto pinion bearing. The cheaper 3 pc tool that looks like this that does NOT say dana 44 is the same damn tool! This one has white paper that specifies the same damn rears sans d44! So I could have saved 50 bucks! Not cool. But it's not this sellers fault so I digress. But be aware this is the same tool as the $119 one, and it does remove D44 pinion and carrier bearings like a breeze. Pretty foolish not to have one of these if you're a mechanic. I'm complaining about 50 bucks but it's still well worth even the inflated price.

Buying a tool like this online can be a bit of a gamble when you are only going by photos. When it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised with the build quality. All the threads were nicely cut and the welds were of good quality. And importantly, the centre bolt was dead parallel with the puller body. The clamshells were perfectly machined, and the tapers at top and bottom were spot on. I put it to the test, removing a BW78 pinion bearing. It was easily removed with no damage to the bearing at all. THIS IS A GREAT TOOL.

I have not used this yet. It’s really nice and is excellent quality. I will come back to this after using it. This tool saves time.

TL;DR: this tool may not work for Ford Sterling 10.25 pinion or carrier bearings if:1. You have a 3.55 or numerically smaller pinion with a narrow shim - the reason for this is that the gear portion of the 3.55 and numerically smaller pinions are thicker than 4.10 and numerically larger pinions, and with a narrow thickness shim there may not be enough space between the pinion shaft-side face of the gear and the base of the tapered roller bearing for the jaws of this puller's cups to fit and close enough for the collar to fit around them.2. You have a later model Trac-Loc carrier where the tapered roller bearing sits completely flush against the mating surface of the carrier and where there are only two recesses for the arms of a 2-jaw puller.In either of these cases, there is absolutely no way that this tool will work without using another tool first, in which case, you may as well just finish the job using that tool, thereby rendering this tool unnecessary.I experienced both of these situations first-hand. In order to pull the tapered roller bearing on my 3.55 pinion, I had to: cut off the bearing cage so I could fit a bearing splitter under the very small gap between the spline-side face of the pinion gear and the base of the bearing and use a large 3-jaw puller ( Posi-Lock 110 ) to grab the bearing splitter and press agains the spindle end of the pinion. You could also place the bearing splitter on the arbor plates of a press and press the pinion out of the bearing.In order to pull the carrier bearings, I had to cut off the bearing cage and use a 2 jaw puller ( Posi-Lock 210 ) which has arms that fit in the 2 recesses on the carrier ( see picture ).In both cases, I had to also apply a fair bit of heat from a heat gun prior to starting to be able to turn the pullers.If both of these cases apply to you, my humble advice would be to buy a Posi-Lock 210 2-jaw puller, a large ( > 4 inch ) bearing splitter plate, and a heat gun if you don't already own them. Even though I used a 3-jaw puller on the bearing splitter, you could definitely us a 2-jaw that is the size of a Posi-Lock 210.Otherwise, this tool does look very nice and probably works great if you have enough space between the base of the bearing you are pulling and the surface underneath it for the puller cup jaws to fit under enough for the cups to close completely.

It seems like a good design, heavy enough material. Only problem is screw threaded block is not true to puller tube so does not remove bearing straight and smooth, it wobbles around and pulls bearing unevenly. Yes, it works, but it could have been made better.

I've seen the more expensive ones used that look identical to this one and I'm pretty sure they are identical. It's done exactly what it's intended to do and helped me out. Not a tool I WANT to use often, but I wouldn't mind using it often with how easy it makes it. A lot better than cutting the old bearings off and a lot more cost effective for setting up gears.
