Steering column upper bearing housing remover
« on: February 04, 2015 - 03:14:31 PM »
I made this when I couldn't get the bearing housing off. Just used an old plate retainer, deep socket, 3/8 -16 nut and a long bolt. It ain't purdy but worked like a charm.   :2thumbs:  Anybody ever needs it just pay postage back/forth I'll loan it to you.

Lots of time the tool you make out of necessity works better than anything you can buy.
