Beatty cam tools?
#4
I agree that it is a quality tool and the price is right. I know of no other tool that is less-expensive or more effective, except the free-to-borrow Auto-Zone puller, which still leaves you with the task of installing the bearing. Some use one of the old cams to drive them in, but I wonder if that will insert it to the correct depth. I also can't see how you would know if the bearing was going in straight using this method, although once started it should go in correctly. Anyone know? The Beatty tool installs it at the right depth and orients it in a straight path. I thought it was worth the ~$90 and would do it again. You could also sell the tool on HTT, here, or Ebay for probably $50, so you wouldn't be out much money.
You can read a description and discussion of the Beatty tool here. You may need to register with HTT before you can read it.

I just ordered mine and he was VERY resopnsive and very nice to deal with. 93.00 shipped I think was the final price. I have never done a cam install before so having the right tool to do it correctly was the correct descision for me. I did not want to have to guess or use a socket and tap it in hoping I got it in correctly. No guess work. Use the tool and you are worrie free.

Free autozone pulller, and use a cam to drive the new ones in. Do one at a time and it's easy to get the depth right by looking at the other. They go in very easily with just a little lube on them. No need to spend the $90 on the tool unless you're gonna be doing cam changes every day.

They have free tool rental. You pay for the tool up front, and they refund your money when you return the tool. Ask for the "blind hole puller set".
