Orion Motor Tech Wheel Bearing Press Kit for Front Wheel Drive Bearing Removal & Installation, 24pc Wheel Bearing Puller Tool Set with Sliding Screws Universal Bushings Sleeves Storage Case

This is a well-made, versatile set of wheel bearing bushings, adapters, and pressing tool that I got for about $30 less than a similar set I was considering from a discount tool retailer whose initials are "HF." I immediately put this set to work to press in a new front wheel bearing on a 2008 Honda Ridgeline. I first had to press the bearing into the steering knuckle, followed by pressing the wheel hub into the bearing. This set worked great and made the job easy! All of the components in the set appeared to be well finished and shipped with a protective layer of oil to avoid rust. The blow molded case is convenient and sturdy, and the tool components fit well in their designated slots. I also wanted to make a couple of points about issues other reviewers raised with this set: 1) Using the tool to press in a bearing ruined the threads on the screw -- The key to avoiding this problem is to lube the heck out of the screw each time you use it. I took no chances and used a generous amount of general purpose grease to lubricate the screw, and it showed no damage after the two pressing operations I described above. 2) The adapters and bushings have numbers instead of diameters stamped on them, making it more awkward to figure out what sizes you need for your particular vehicle -- This set comes with a small booklet provides instructions and diagrams for using it on common brands of vehicles. The diagrams include call-outs showing the bushing and adapter numbers you should use, which you can cross-reference with a diagram and parts list for the set on the last page of the booklet. This makes it easy to quickly pick out the right mix of bushings and adapters for your vehicle, and I don't feel it takes any longer than measuring and matching up diameters on your bearing and tool.

Works great good quality

Good quality, good value compared to other stores. The only bad thing is that it chewed through the washers but it was because of my fault. Take your time and learn how to use it and don’t forget to lubricate the bolt/nut and washers and try to use a ratchet first instead of an impact gun.

Tool works as needed but tool instructions could use a vehicle manufacturer tool usage guide to verify what pieces are the perfect fit for each application of removal and installation. I still recommend this tool for the type of job it's intended to do. Seller and Manufacturer are good to deal with.

Great set at a good price. Made replacing the wheel bearing a much easier job. Seems pretty durable and has a lot of size options to fit your needs.

Used this product to remove 30+ year old subframe bushings that are pressed in and extremely rusty, with some additional help form a blow torch and a 3/8 breaker bar, it made quick work of an otherwise painful job. All of the kits pieces are exceptionally robust, I had no issues with the threads stripping or wearing (like other reviews I've seen). Assembly is quick and easy, the bolt is even pre lubricated. There are plenty of sizes to fit practically every automotive application. The case is a bit flimsy, I did end up breaking it after I dropped it by my own fault, it is only plastic holding a lot of carbon steel pieces. To me this is a non issue, between the two bolts that are supplied you can carry all of the pieces on them for storage and minimize space taken up by the case. One thing I do wish was better is the length of the sleeves, I had reached full travel before the bushing bottomed out on the other side of the sleeve and used a rubber mallet for the rest

This tool worked perfectly and made removing the wheel bearing and hub much easier. It saved a lot of time and effort compared to traditional methods. I highly recommend it to anyone working on wheel bearings or hub assemblies. Definitely worth it.

Overall the concept of this tool is awesome and it’s actually decently made . There is one major downfall preventing it from receiving 5 stars . The washers that are designed to save the tool( which I think are a great idea ) shred metal flakes everywhere when you’re pressing the bearing in. The tool is very effective at pressing bearing in and out it did a great job but cleaning up all the metal flakes from the washers and making sure they were all over the new bearing was a mess .. this kit should include way thicker and higher quality washer and it would be a 5 star best tool on the market no doubt . Orion I love your tools if you’re reading this PLEASE MAKE THE WASHERS FOR THIS KIT THICKER AND MORE ROBUST AND THIS WILL BE THE BEST KIT AVAILABLE !!!!!!

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

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.

Buena herramienta Excelente relación precio calidad

Great piece of kit and we'll worth the cost.
