Orion Motor Tech 23-Piece FWD Front Wheel Drive Bearing Adapters Puller Press Replacement Installer Removal Tool Kit

Bought this after reading through the reviews of a few puller kits, and as this one seemed to have the best ratio of positive to negative experiences, I decided to give it a go. Needed to press out a 97mm rear bearing on a Mercedes Vito van, so the kit had its work cut out for it! On first look, the quality of the pieces was surprisingly decent for the price…well finished, and nicely packaged. In use, the component pieces worked very well and were sufficiently robust to do the job…couple of turns with a long breaker bar got the bearing moving, and then wound it out the rest of the way with a long handled ratchet. Everything worked exactly as it should, with no issues apart from the washers being a little soft as others have mentioned…although despite being a bit marred from the nut, they would go again fine! As far as the main bolt thread quality is concerned, there isn’t a mark on it and all the threads are still perfect so I would be willing to bet the bad reviews of this component are down to the user ignoring the clear instructions to not use an impact gun…user error basically! Using hand tools as directed, it’s more than up to the task! For a home DIY spanner monkey, I’d happily recommend this set to anyone considering it…it’s a fraction of the price of a ‘professional’ version, but performs its task very well. 5 stars

Durable

Bought this kit to replace the axle bearings on my 2008 scion TC. I live in Illinois, where they use salt on the road during the winter. Thus, as you can imagine what these parts were thoroughly arrested in place However, this bearing kit performed flawlessly. Is a very high-quality professional grade tool.

Perfect

I got this as I needed to replace my wheel bearings on my ATV. After reading some of the bad reviews I was very skeptical on this product but figured I would give it a try. Boy was I glad I did. This made removing and installing the wheel bearings so easy. This worked like a charm. Now it may be the way I'm using it but the only issue I am having or had was once I started installing the bearing and making sure it was going in straight it would seem to go off angle just a bit. Enough to know that the tightening of the bolt became harder so I would stop, remove and start again. Again this was probably something I was doing wrong. Overall the whole package seems very sturdy and well constructed. I would recommend.
