I already have a mini sliding hammer, so I didn’t really need to buy this. But you know, sometimes the sliding hammer doesn’t work out, and that’s when things get tedious.
I was actually thinking I wanted to work more efficiently. I learned about this item from an Instagram reel. At first I just thought, “Oh, there’s a tool like this?” Could this work for removing shift oil seals?
The price is also reasonable, so it was very easy to pick up
Machine the width according to the oil seal size
You need to machine the width according to the inner diameter of the oil seal. Grind it to the angle where this puller lies horizontally against the oil seal.
But if you grind too much, it becomes weak and could break, so balance is necessary. If you pry without grinding, you’ll scratch the shaft, so that also requires caution.
When working on long parts, the surface shown in the image can make contact and cause scratches, so be careful.
If you work while humming, you’ll definitely do it.
You might struggle on the first try, but from the second time on, you’re unstoppable
This is wonderful. I was truly amazed. I bet the two people who saw this blog today will probably buy one (*´ω｀*) It’ll come in handy for removing shift oil seals on Zephyrs and GPZs too.
