- Here's yet another Tool Tuesday with another one of my favorite tools. Works great, pulls CV axles through hubs that are tight tolerance.

Your scenario in the beginning described me to a tee
This is the tool I used on my X5 when I replaced the rear wheel bearings.
I run a rebuilding facility for differentials, transmissions and I also run our drive shaft department and something I've been doing for years now is using red bearing grease (anti seize works also) on all splines, everything goes together much easier and will help prevent seizing should it ever need to come back apart. Another tip is to always lube threads on pusher/puller tools, they will last so much longer. Great video though!
Great demonstration and review, Tyler! Bashing the hub with a rubber mallet or a block of wood and 3lb sledge just does not work, like most American or Japanese vehicles and one will likely damage the CV Axle and/or trying to do so. This tool is worth every penny, whether someone is attempting to reinstall their first E9X CV Axle or the 100th.👍
These videos are awesome man. Love from the Netherlands
Extraordinary detail ! Super helpful !! I learned lots !!! Exactly the coaching I needed .
Thanks mate . 👊🏼🔥
This is a great tool. Bav Auto is sorely missed! Still can't believe they are gone, after all these years.
Another great detail about this tool is that it has a threaded end to accept a slide hammer. It can be used to seat tapered axles like what you find on F chassis, and some Porsches, and VW/Audi.
I love this tool! But yes, it is unfortunate about Bav Auto.
Excellent
Great explanation on how to use this tool. thank you!
Not a problem! Not something you need everyday, but when you do need it.. it's like striking gold. Lol
Damn, I would have needed this when I replaced the CV axles on my E90. Ruined the wheel bearings on both sides while hammering in the axles.. next time I know there's a tool for it
I’m afraid I did the same thing; ruined the wheel bearings when tapping in the cv axle through the hub with a hammer (softened by a piece of wood)
Thank you I have a e36 1996 and it helped a lot I really appreciate
Excellent video san
I wish I'd known about this before I f🤬ed my axle threads
💯
Where buy the kit
How do you do the opposite? I mean taking the old axle out :)
I have a tool for that as well actually, haha. This exact tool set (Also available at AutoZone); www.homedepot.com/p/Powerbuilt-Master-Hub-Puller-Kit-648608/203117086?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US
I rent the 3 jaw puller from advance auto. Always works for me.
New video is up, showing how I remove seized axles on E46/E36
