I broke both bolts on my first attempt. Added Update #2 on An old snap-on camera I purchased is now mine Earlier versions of this tool looked exactly like the one shown below. This tool worked great on two of my columns, and I loaned it to my neighbor. I am not sure why the difference exists. Is it possible that the bolt was graded wrong? Anyway, I wasn't a big fan of the Lisle brand. Some people will have luckier luck than others. A quick update The luck of the draw. The link was not working. After the tilt pivot pins were soaked overnight, they were again dipped in heavy duty penetrating oil It was impossible to install both bolts on the tool the first time around. In order to prevent the outer part of the tool from touching the pivot pins, I made sure it was not touching the rim. It appears the bolts are made of cheap, thin metal, yet the outer piece is solid. There is no point in wasting your time. I have already returned it. Located in the United States, the company has its headquarters there. It is not possible to confirm that the item is made in this country. It costs over $40 to buy some of these tools. I would be happy with this device if it worked for its price. In any case, from what I have seen, it seems to be high It will be mounted on a tilt steering column from a 1982 CJ7. It was easy for General Motors to make saginaw columns to fit many different vehicle models. It is pretty much the same for most of the columns. From the late 70s to the early I will post an update on the success of the tool later.
It is also possible to use a grade 8 bolt and nut, a fender washer, and the nut that secures the steering wheel to complete the job. Seriously, why not just get the tool, do the job right, and be done with it for such a low price. The reason that some have broken the bolt on this tool might be that they did not use the 9/16" hex wrench specified in the instructions to keep the bolt from rotating in the process of wrenching down the nut In the event that you do not hold the bolt steadily with the hex wrench, you apply excessive torque to the bolt which can result in it breaking. It is my sincere hope that this helped.
This is such a useful Is a one-trick pony that does a singular task In 1985, this was needed to pull the upper section of the steering column of my Trans Am to correct a After trying some DIY methods with a socket and washers, I realized that I was going to break my bolt. With this tool, I was able to zip out both pins. Keep it in the toolbox just in case I have to do this job again in the future.
I used this tool on my 1989 Chevrolet S10 steering column and it fit perfectly. The other people are using a very simple tool to snap the bolts into place in the column, I have no idea what they are doing. The likelihood is that you didn't know what you were doing if you broke it.
This tool is vital if you are intending to remove a pivot pin on a GMC/Chevy. The tool was purchased so that I could swap the steering wheel on My impatience caused me to purchase a different tool from a local parts store and waste my time and money because it broke immediately. In minutes after this tool arrived, I rushed back to my local junkyard and when using this tool, I was able to remove that pivot pin without hesitation. This is a great tool to have in your toolbox! It's well worth the price, and there are no headaches to deal with.
In the future, I do not expect to use this tool I am a little disappointed because it worked so well. Anyways, I bought this to pull apart the column on a 1977 Chevy pickup truck to replace a few parts that had worn out The bearings, the turn signal switch, and the lock cylinder are all in need of repair. As for the culprit, it is the strator or whatever plastic gear that interacts with the rack to move the actuator rod back and forth and turn on the starter. The entire process was like something out of Rube Goldberg. I am happy now that everything is back to normal after the incident.
I read a forum where someone created a tool using a cut pipe, grade-stripped pipe, and a grade-stripped drill bit to do the same thing as this. An 8-screw cap screw and 8 washers are included. A pivot pin remover that he made himself cost him more than $10, much more than the price of this tool! While the shape of this tool is odd, once you have used it, you will appreciate its design, especially if you just painted your steering column and have to disassemble it again as a result. If you position it so it does not touch the outside, it will not damage the outside of the cap.
To hold the cap screw, you'll need a 1/2" wrench (open end works fine) and possibly an Allen wrench (I have By turning the 1/2" nut slowly, you will be able to pull the pivot pin out. The footprint of this tool is small, so I keep it in a zip-lock bag Inside my blow-molded case for my steering wheel puller is a plastic bag I keep everything in. I bought my lock plate compressor set from the front store at my local freight terminal.
After trying to remove my pivot pins with a competitors model twice, I had them strip out (I ordered a replacement from Amazon). In the meantime, I ordered the Lisle, received it an hour ago, and the pins came out easily. You will need a 9/64 Allen wrench to use this. It is of sturdy construction and it is easy to The tool is good.
