Had two Yamaha's with leaking forks, watched a couple videos on how and one had this driver and it looked much better than the other methods. My son and I are firm believers in this product now.

I know many of you have use the old PVC pipe method when rebuilding your motorcycle's forks to drive in the fork seals.Well I tried that and it was too risky to take a chance of damage seals. The tool came without any instructions, but at this level. Do you really need instructions?I even tried the grinding down a small brass punch and push the seal down into the recessed space of the fork. Read a lot of reviews for this tools and I was a bit skeptical myself. Well I took a chance and got the tool.After trying the old method for an hour I gave up and took a chance and order this tool. Well it came and it literally took me about 10 minutes to properly seat the seal down into the upper fork legs.The trick is to slowly slide the split hammer collar down while turning the 3 plastic finger around the seals. Once the seal goes down into the groove evenly. That's when you use a bit of more force to slide the heavy collar down. As you slide the collar down with some medium force, you rotate the 3 fingers so that you can evenly drive the self in evenly. It took about 15 slide and the seal finally was seated and I put in the snap ring in and voila. Took me about a total of 30 minutes for both legs taking my time with even pressure.The tool actually works and the seal isn't damage or nicked anywhere. There's no signs or marks on the seal itself. Great tool and definitely worth the money spent. The collar has a nice weight to it and has two pins to lock itself in place while there's a plastic sleeve to protect the fork sliders.No issues and the tools feels sturdy and should last many years for those DIY mechanic who likes to work on their bikes.

This is a must own tool for anyone who rebuilds their own forks. The only flaw I've found with it is that the insert doesn't like to sit properly on smaller diameter fork tubes. You have to be careful, or you will damage the fork seal when driving it into the race.

Saved me some money by being able to reseal my forks at home.

I had to do fork seals on a 2004 Hayabusa. This worked great to drive in my new seals. Perfect for occasional use. I would recommend

The weight is a bit to big for a 41mm tube. Plus the black guides are glued on and one was all ready coming off. Used a zip tie to hold the 2 halves together. Also used a zip tie to hold the plastic seal driver on the tube. After a couple of slides I would rotate it about 45 degrees and repeat the process until fully seated. It did the job but wasn't feeling real confident with the oversize metal that seem to be made for a 49mm shock tube.

I’ve replaced 10 pairs of fork seals this year and I finally got tired of using PVC pipe or being careful with a tap as to not damage the seals. This tool made quick work of my last install installing both seal and dust cover in 2 seconds. So glad I finally broke down and purchased the right tool for the job.

It was bent right out of the package. I am very disappointed in poor quality. As I used to the driver, the screws slipped and loosened. The driver completely ruined my new oil seal. It hit the rubber in a way that caused it to split and break the seal to the point that I could see the metal ring inside the seal. Do not buy, spend the extra money to get the right tool for the job.

Too small for 49mm forks, the two peices dont connect properly, would work fine for a smaller fork.
