ABSTRACT:
A combination bearing removal and installation tool provides for the removal and installation of an annular bearing assembly from and in a spindle-receiving bore of a strut type vehicle wheel spindle supporting system without the need to disassemble any of the supporting system from the vehicle. The tool comprises a threaded shaft having a head at one end and a cup threaded onto the shaft from the other end. In the bearing removal mode of operation the open end of the cup faces the head end so that when the head is actuated to remove a bearing from the bore the bearing passes into the cup. In the bearing installation mode of operation the cup is reversed on the shaft so that an end wall of the cup bears against the end of the bore. This end of the cup comprises at least one frusto-conically tapered surface seating the cup against a corresponding tapered surface at the end of the bore and a locator projects from the end of the cup to be abutted by a set of bearings being installed thereby accurately locating the bearings when the head of the shaft is actuated to advance a new set of bearings into the bore. The tool can also be used to press a wheel spindle into a newly installed set of bearings.
