    I'm sending mine out to Newlife. He'll send it to the next person that needs it.

    It's ugly but worked great for me. I made it after the stores were closed with what I had laying around. I may have been in a hurry and used the wrong pitch tap, and then may not have had a fine thread bolt long enough. So there's a 12mm coarse thread bolt with the flats on the head ground off and fine threads put on it poorly. :anonymous: Laugh at the idiocy, marvel at the ingenuity. lol

    The flat side of the puller goes toward you. Wiggle it a little as you're putting tension on it. That will seat it only on the bearing, I think there's a little lip in the diff case it can get caught on. And freeze the bushing to shrink it before you start to reinstall. Mine was very tight trying to get it in.

    For an install tool I've always used a big 1/2in drive socket with an extension put into it backwards (slide the extension into the socket where a nut would usually be).
    But I just got these and love them. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZYH34JZ/ Two of the disks stack, one that slips in the bushing to center it and then one that goes on the lip of the bushing to push it in. Autozone should loan you a similar kit.


    I'll get it in the mail and you should have it next week.

    Yes got it today I think. I haven’t opened it yet. I got some rando package Saturday too I haven’t opened. I’ve been so busy getting reports done at work and making sure I have every little piece of my truck ready for this swap....

    Pass that ugly POS on eventually with what's going on. post here to keep track, but really IDC.

    EVERYONE ELSE...STAY THE FUK HOME.

    I've got a friend that's a doc, they told me some scary stories, and they are preparing to weather the storm... Stay the fuk home again, and for a third refrain...

    Use the calories in your cupboard and wait till they're bare. Whatever date that is. Don't go buy 4 things at the store.

    Thx

    I just ordered a bushing Sunday, but I picked up an ecgs removal tool off eBay two weeks back. I should be getting this bushing taken care of this weekend, and throwing another tool out for the whoring.

    Well, apparently it was a one time use tool lol. I got mine done this afternoon, but the threaded puller side bent right at the threads and now its stuck. I'll try to straighten it at work on Monday, but I'm not holding out much hope......
