Clatoon Inner CV Axle Puller Tool — 5/8-18 Slide Hammer, 7 lb with 63mm & 48mm Forks, Heat-Treated Steel

The Clatoon Inner CV Axle Puller Tool with a 5/8"-18 slide hammer is a heavy-duty removal kit that extracts stubborn inner CV axles cleanly without harming surrounding components.

This professional-grade set combines a 7 lb slide hammer, two CV joint fork adapters and matching hardware to remove inner constant-velocity axles from a wide range of cars, SUVs and light trucks. Made from heat-treated 45# steel with protective plating, the kit is built for repeated garage use and comes with assembly guidance and safety notes to reduce the chance of damage to aluminum housings or other nearby parts.

How does this tool safely remove a stuck inner CV axle?

The slide hammer delivers controlled impact force along the axle centerline so you pull the shaft straight out instead of levering against housings. The included CV joint fork adapters sit behind the inner race, transferring force to the axle while protecting gearbox and hub surfaces. Simple hand assembly and even blows reduce twisting or side-loads that can cause costly damage.

• 5/8"-18 threaded slide hammer fits supplied forks for secure connection
• Two fork sizes (63mm and 48mm) cover different axle joint diameters
• Straight-line pulling avoids prying on aluminum gearboxes
• Gloves included to protect hands during hammering

What vehicles and axle sizes will this kit work with?

The Clatoon set is made for most passenger cars, crossovers and light trucks, but compatibility depends on inner CV joint dimensions. The two fork adapters cover many common inner race sizes; larger commercial vehicles or rare shaft profiles may need a different adapter. Always measure the axle and inner joint before starting to confirm fit.

• 63mm and 48mm fork adapters for common inner CV joint diameters
• 5/8"-18 threaded connections accept many aftermarket adapters
• Suitable for most domestic and imported cars and light trucks
• Check axle specs for large trucks or unusual CV designs first

How durable and reliable is the Clatoon puller kit?

Components are manufactured from 45# steel, then heat-treated and plated to resist wear and corrosion in a shop environment. The slide hammer weighs 7 pounds to provide strong impact without extreme bulk, and hardware is sized for repeated use. If an assembled screw or adapter feels loose, tighten the assembly bolts and use a wrench to secure connections before hammering.

• Heat-treated 45# steel for toughness and fatigue resistance
• Black or chrome plating reduces rust in garage conditions
• 7 lb slide hammer provides greater pull energy for stubborn axles
• Spare nuts and robust T-bar included for tool longevity

What safety and usage tips should I follow when using this tool?

Use steady, controlled strikes and keep the tool aligned with the axle center to avoid slips and unintended impacts. Never point the slide hammer toward your body or allow bystanders in the swing path; secure the work area and wear eye and hand protection. If the axle is nearly free, stop and clear a safe path to avoid inertia-related injury or falls.

• Wear the included gloves plus eye protection
• Keep tool alignment straight to prevent side loading
• Do not let the slide hammer swing toward your body
• Double-check fasteners and tighten with a wrench if needed

Who is this for: The Clatoon Inner CV Axle Puller set is aimed at professional mechanics, backyard enthusiasts and DIYers who need a dependable way to extract inner CV shafts without damaging gearboxes or hubs.
