freebird Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Anyone ever use this.http://i778.photobucket.com/albums/yy68/jaybirdskate/w6_zpseecrwuf2.jpg I have had it for a while...15 years or so.Used it maybe 2 times and dont remember on what?I cant seem to find it in the 87 service manual....which seems to be the only one I have right now.I kinda think its for the spindle or torque tube....maybe the diff...?Thanks in advance.

Skullzaflare Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 looks like a pulley puller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebird Posted June 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 hmmmm.....could be. here's the other end.http://i778.photobucket.com/albums/yy68/jaybirdskate/z3_zpssvcqtod3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullzaflare Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 whats the bolt spread? 4 bolt hub press so get off the 4 bolt axle flanges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 I would say it would bolt to the inner hub flange and be used to push the spindle / axle out of the hub. After the nut is off of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STARION_NORTH Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 ^^that would be my guess too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the nut is off of course. that was my first guess....I tried asking in the virtual mech section....I'm sure no one else has one of these though....It's worth a shot to see if someone may have seen it in the service manual though.

StarquestRescue Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 The non intercooled cars have a smaller bolt center on the flanges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 It could be for the tt flange. But those are usually not very tight. it is not in the 85 manual. That is the oldest one I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ucw458 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 The relief on the end looks like the relief in the hub flange for the axle shaft dust seal. Based on that I would guess it supposed to help you insert the axle shafts into the diff. Specifically to make sure it's seated past the circlip.

Specifically to make sure it's seated past the circlip. yep that would make it perfectly worthless then....lol..That's the Miller's making tools for anything and everything... ...sounds about right. But then again..... it does have the big bolt with fine threads....and the wrench end does have some sign of good hard torque being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucw458 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 If you look in the special tools section you will notice alot of stuff like that is sold in two pieces. The flange and handle will have separate part #s. I can only guess they do this because the handle can be used with other tools. There's only a few things on a SQ with a bolt pattern like that. I can't think of a way that tool would be very useful in any of those places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMeyerhoff Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I'm with SQRs original idea about the rear spindle flange. Those things can really get stuck on there and it would take a big press to push them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metric-man Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 It looks like a older MB990787-01 (rear axel bearing case remover) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
