OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The tools in the front end tool set all work on similar principles but are different sizes and configurations for a wide range of applications.
The various pullers in this set are useful in cases where the parts are to be reused, as opposed to "pickle-fork" type tools that usually damage the parts. Damaged parts
must be replaced.
Note - Many front-end components use self-locking nuts, which must be replaced when removed. Check the specific vehicle manufacturer's service information for
applications.
Removal: 1. For tie-rod and ball joint applications, remove the cotter pin. See figure (a). 2. Remove the retaining nut from the tie rod or ball joint stud or the steering
box output shaft at the pitman arm. See figures (b) and (c). 3. Position the puller tool so that the center screw presses on the end of the tie rod or ball joint stud or
the steering box output shaft. See Figures (d), (e), and (f). The jaws of the puller should be forced between the boot on the tie rod or ball joint and the steering knuckle,
or between the pitman arm and the steering box body. Tighten the puller center screw with a wrench until the parts have been separated. It may be helpful to tap the
head of the center screw with a hammer to break parts loose.
