Balancer puller

[AlexR 2,606]

After l bent the balancer puller plate and destroyed the threads on a advance auto PT brand one. I returned that one for the warranty.

 

And ordered a used snap-on from eBay for $30, 100% worth it. I was going between this snap-on, and a old Mac puller. Ended up going snap-on because of the applications I am using it for, the snap-on's design let's the plate sit a little closer, when pulling on shafts like this. 

I am not huge on tool truck name tool brands. I have many different brands in my toolbox, lot of old craftsman, crescent, masterforce (menards brand) are the main ones. 

 

But these pullers, are one tool I would definitely go name brand, or at least old on.

Vintage tools are the key.

That's why one has to dig through those buckets & milk crates at flea markets & garage sales.

When I was working on Harley's for a livin' Kent Moore ( Spent Moore ) was a good quality as well.
