The price is $100 off the competition, but the quality is the same. The depth of the seals can be perfectly set without damage. A warning it appears to be quite lightweight from the first glance. It is made of a solid piece of metal (not aluminum), so it is not lightweight. As long as it's set inside the hub, it will stay in place so you can bang it around a bit. My setting tool of choice was a heavy rubber mallet. I haven't had a problem with it.

My own fault. I had a machinist at work bore the ID of a 35-spline shaft to fit over the ID of the product. Once that was done, everything worked like a charm. It only takes a minute to open the seal driver part itself since the handle is hollow and big enough for 35 splines.
Does the job for what it's designed to do. It got messed up on the first seal. If I had used it the first time, I would have paid for half of it. Do it and you will no longer have to deal with aggravation of having to wait for it to arrive.

My purpose for buying this tool was to set the front axel seal for my Ford F-150 My experience with it was pretty simple and the price was very reasonable. In the end, it took me about 20 minutes per seal to complete the task, which was quicker and cheaper than going to the auto shop.
was not able to use the product for my project, but I did inspect it and it seemed durable and heavy duty. All those who wish to install their hub axle seals correctly should check out this guide.
