Mike Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Hey Hat. It is a great tool to have for any big truck. I bought it several years ago and is a must have tool for joints. It is fast for removal and installs easy also.mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/37146-tool-question/#findComment-260605 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ditchkus Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I have one.It makes it much easier to remove stubborn joints. I work on my own trucks but not a mechanic by any means. It beats jacking or hammer. Joe D. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/37146-tool-question/#findComment-260614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Mack Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 we used them at work, after a while we were stretching the fine thread screw so a machinist came up the a method of attaching a hydraulic ram to the frame operated by a foot air valve... sort of like having a hyd press hanging in mid air...easy!!!!!we do them assembly line style in one shop overhauling complete drivelines, 10-15 at a time, has cut the time and effort to nothing, sure beats sledge hammers..BC Mack Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/37146-tool-question/#findComment-260752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
