When I tried to use it on my 1996 F 250 4/4, the tabs that go under the pit-view were pretty wide. My arm grabbed the edge, so I broke one of the tabs, so it's better to go to Checkers and rent one for free. It's twenty dollars, and when you return it you get your money back or you can keep it.
As long as the "normal" puller is too small, then it will certainly not fit The steering box on my 2005 F250 and my f450 worked just fine!
It's likely to happen, according to me. I used it in my 2000 Expedition without any problem. The steering box must be unbolted from the frame to make clearance around the cross member on that truck. While it was Chinese, this tool did not break when it pulled the arm, and that would be the
used it to remove the back of my 1998 Dodge Ram 1500, 2WD and decided it was the best puller for the job. Obviously, I can't be sure for certain, but I don't see why it wouldn't work on a 1999 model

This is done. Everything in my garage did not work so this was the only thing that worked. With or without the pickle fork or BFH this little guy pulled the pitman arm off my 94 Toyota vehicle. It's not a good idea to crank this thing manually, it may break your Get it good and tight and then smack the pitman arm with a hammer (on the part around the splines) and then crank the puller some more and do You'll be able to pop it These things were broken by people who cranked them over and over until they One of the key steps is a quick smack from a big-headed monster.
A 2006 Mazda 6 required the removal of metal sleeves on the lower control arms. I bought this to do that. This also occurs with Ford Fusions and Mercury Milans with the same engine. The metal sleeve that attaches the ball joint to the steering knuckle often comes out of the ball joint knuckle seized to the stud if you have one of these vehicles and try to replace the lower control arms. We regret to inform you that these sleeves are not included with the purchase of There are new sleeves available for $11 to $14 The cost is $20 each, but since you may need up to four per car, it can add up quickly. Then I saw one video where they use this (or a similar brand) puller, after watching a number of YouTube videos about this issue. Before I ordered the puller, I sprayed the sleeves with PB Blaster while I waited for it to arrive. In the event that the puller arrived, I tied it to the three control arms on my car where I found the sleeve As soon as I oiled the forcing screw threads, I used my pneumatic impact gun (HF Earthquake 1/2") to easily zip off the sleeves.
*Since I have experience with this to remove these sleeves, I recommend this method.
It has a great price and a great product. Taking the steering box out of the frame isn't an issue, since it isn't bolted to the frame. Another thing I had to remove was a truck track bar drop bracket since it was blocking the path. Although it is a great price for this product, I recommend it nonetheless. If you have a hand torch, you may also want to heat up your pitman arm from the inside, because it will expand before you use this pulley. If you apply some lubrication to the shaft, this will help it break free easier without breaking the pitman arm puller. If you do both these things, it will be easier. If your mechanic is poor, you will have poor results. There is a 99-percent chance of rain today Having read the other reviews, I was happy to find that I did not have to separate the steering box from the frame to repair the steering box.
The vehicle I own is a 2003 Ford F-150 Since this puller cannot fit between the pitman arm and the power steering box as manufactured, and as other reviews have stated, it will not work for the 350. There was a small amount of metal on the bottom of the puller that I had to grind off, so it would fit in the space it needed to be. Because the puller is quite thick to begin with, and it was still strong even after removing the metal, I felt confident in doing this. Due to the fact that a pitman arm puller that would work right out of the box would be so much more expensive, I decided to take this route.
The tool has provided me with excellent releases for upper and lower ball joints as well as tie rod ends - The heart of a pitman, but not the Having been there ourselves, we all know how it feels. An experienced mechanic who has been bashing away with a big, greasy hammer at the ball joint or tie rod end of your vehicle. In case the hammer won't work, you create contraptions with bottle jacks and even more power so that even more damage is done. Nevertheless, when that doesn't work, you turn to the unthinkable - Take out your pickle fork and reach for it. The evil forked piece of steel that has mushrooms on one end because you beat it mercilessly and deep gouges and marks on the forked end because it has ripped apart unknown steering parts. This is a fantastic product, do yourself a favor and buy it. It used to be a chore to tighten ball joints and tie rods until I got this product. This tool makes it easy for you to take apart those things. You can also use a blow gun to make things This tool will make you fall in love with it. Gold chain will be put on it, and you will wear it at There are many good tools from Lisle, and this is one of them. The tool I purchased is a bit wider than some other similar tools I have found for sale, but I have not had any issues with its dimensions. The threads on this tool can be kept lubricated for years by putting a little grease on them. Mechanics in the world of this e-book can be divided into two types This tool belongs to those who own it as well as those who are planning to acquire it.
You need a large puller for the Super Duty The tool has been on my wish list for some time now. Using this puller, I was very happy with the results and performance. When I put it in place, I used an impact driver to turn the bolt, popped the pitman arm off fairly easily with barely any effort. However, if I had a bunch of broken spline teeth on my pitman arm, that may have caused the problem. I am very pleased with how well the tool performs, and how durable it is. If you have next large pitman arm pull job coming up, then I would recommend it.
There seems to have been some knockoffs. I hope that gives you a clue that you will likely not be getting a Lisle if you pay $10 for a $20+ tool. However, this puller did the job on an original pitman arm attached to an 1986 In this case, the arm was plugged into the When I went to remove that arm, I broke my old, trusted puller. Unlike that one, this one took care of it without a problem. Using my 1/2" impact gun (expected it to fail due to the amount of force used (it shouldn't have failed)). Despite being a failure, it succeeded. The quality of the paper is very high. The win goes to Lisle!.
