Each piece is machined from AISI 1045 medium carbon steel and finished for corrosion resistance, and the kit includes the forcing bolt, nut and a socket so you can begin jobs quickly. The design centers on applying even, axial force to preserve the hub bearing and nearby assemblies while extracting the flange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the puller remove seized hubs and axles without harming other parts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe puller set locks onto the flange and transfers straight, even pressure through a hardened forcing bolt so the hub or axle slides free along its axis. Because force is concentrated at the flange interface, the inner bearing and suspension components remain undisturbed when used correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlange-style grip secures around 3-3\/4\" to 5-1\/2\" hub diameters for stable pulling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8\" x 18 forcing bolt delivers controlled axial force to push the hub off the axle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket and nut allow ratchet or breaker-bar operation—no improvised hammering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich vehicles will this kit fit and how universal is it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a universal kit, the front hub puller covers most independent front suspension hubs and the axle puller fits many 4.5\"–5.5\" flange applications.
