Trunion tool best 30 I have spent

I was going to use sockets to press out stock bearings but at last minute I ordered this tool. It sure made easy work of them.

I used the straub kit little more work than the CHE kit. But both look to do the job.

Where are you getting that tool for $30? The best I have found so far is $45 with shipping at Summit

Neat tool. I saw them when I bought my trunnion upgrade (I feel like they were $40+ though)...but I had a perfectly sized socket so I used that instead. Took about 10 minutes to get them all out and saved a few bucks not getting it instead.

After doing it, I don't see how this would be any easier, but to each their own
