If you are unable to acquire the tool you can use a hydraulic press as well, it just requires removal of the A-arm/Control arm along with the strut assembly and probably a second person's assistance to balance things while setting up the press. I have found that a large socket 1/2" drive works to support the bottom of it, and you will want several dowels approximately the diameter of the spindle pin in 1" increments from 1-6" to use on the top to press the spindle out. If anyone wants I can take a few pictures when I do the other side.

Please do. I don't have a press but I'm sure if I take pictures they will be able to do it no problem at the shop I goto.

I wanted to chime in and recommend John for the puller rental/purchase. I purchased one this weekend. I sent payment via Paypal on Saturday and the puller arrived on Monday! That's great service!

 

Haven't used it yet, but I can tell from the design it will work great. I will be glad to have it as I'm building my GTO/ Velo Rossa, I'll likely pull the spindles a few times getting the ride height and spring rate correct.

 

Thank you John.

Good to see the mail service can still be trusted...lol...

 

I sent a short set of instructions and if you have any more questions just let me know.

 

Mods, if this post in not in the proper location please let me know I only chose to keep it tied to a old spindle tool thread.

 

Thanks for the kind words,

John
