Question Bearing tool remover and installer

I purchased a blind bearing tool remover last year from some online shop to remove the wheel bearings.. I did not look at the specs closely, all the collarettes are in mm, 15-17-20-25-30, nothing exactly 3/4 but i bet the 17 or even the 20mm will work as it goes in and you expand it before pulling upwards on the handle to remove it. A year later i dont think i can change it so i hope this will work

so first question is will it work to remove it?
what about installing the new ones? no rod or anything else in the kit, any ideas or do i really need to purchase something to do this.

Any comments or suggestions are appreciated. thanks Ted
