Workshop/Diary - Bearing Puller
Useful Tools
Dropped Forged Bearing Pullers, Set of Three, Chrome Plated 3" 4" and 6" Totally Reversable for Internal and External Pulling (eBay: £6.99 to £30.99 - Shop around)
Ideal for removing gear-s / sprockets / bearings / pulleys, and a requirement for when you need to remove the hub bearings on your e39. A number of people I know were having to change their wheel bearings and I had'nt done one for a while, so being prepared is the key - most likely another job, fortunately at a later date. The puller has a long bolt with a ball bearing tip on one end and on the other a hex grip which allows you to use either your hand or where it's tight a 19mm spanner or socket on the end.
I have managed to get this set for £6.99 and on inspection they seem robust, as yet, I have not had the opportunity to used them.
