I've been trying to find a two or three jaw blind hole bearing puller for my slide hammer with 5/8" X 18 tip.

I haven't had any success locating one that opens wide enough for my needle bearings that are in the back of the spindles for the Dana 60. :frustrate

The largest one I've found opens out to 1 1/2".

Does anybody know where I can get the correct attachment for my slide hammer?

Thanks in advance guys!

Check this out. I think the bearing you are speaking of is the one I did in this example.

Thanks for that idea! I think I'll use that idea and get HF's three jaw puller;

I can't use the other puller attachments because they are M12.5 which is .49", while my slapper is .625"...

But I can use this...
You must be registered for see images attach


My slapper will still be useful for "slapping" the spindles off with a screw on adapter that threads on the

outside end of the spindle... Now that will save me alot of time and aggravation, no doubt...

@ Dieselcrawler...

Thanks for that idea! Even though I've got a 20" long bearing race knock out punch, I would have never thought to use it on the needle bearings in the back of the spindles...

A hat tip to Dieselcrawler!!! (We need a hat tip icon for the forum!!!)
