Even after lubing the threads, it galled up on me. I managed to clean it up and use it, but I wasn't going to send it back to you that way.

Wonder why? I've never had the 1" ones do that. Were the bearings in there a long time?

I've never used a puller. Chisel and punch to remove and arbor press to install.

Oh, I spent $160 for that suit.

And it took 3 weeks to get the replacement!!! Couldn't believe it. That was the delay in getting it back to you.

I was in no hurry for it Greg. I just looked at it today so that tells you how often I use the tool. Unless a bearing goes bad, I won't touch it again until the next tire change.

I know, I just felt bad for having it for so long.
