Bearing Puller

Post by sjroark »

I have a 1956 Mark V Greenie complete system, and a 1954 Greenie headstock that I will start to refurbish later this month. I am building the correct tools for the correct job what type of bearing puller works best when removing bearings? I have searched and seen all different kinds looking for some experience with bearing pullers with the older parts.

Thanks

I have the same one, well mine is in a red case but that is about all that is different.

Keep in mind you can always get 20% off with a coupon, and sometimes a 25% off. They, the coupons show up a lot of places or sign up and get their mailings if you don't already get them, plenty of tools I would not get from them but this is one that has worked for me.

I see this will work as a puller. Will this work as a press? I just thought once I get the bearings off how do I get them back on? Sorry haven't started the tear down that is about two weeks away. So questions come at random times.
