Took all day to do one rear bearing...fun

[Homeboy981]

+1 on Casper Labs tools AND Bill Ryan! They work well and FAST for very little $$$.

Would highly recommend this company…he helped save my engine!

I have Sir Tools P90 kit, would trade it for Casper tools….are they available for sale yet? Anyone want a Sir Tools setup…it will still save time over 'conventional' methods.

Casper made me an adapter for removal of another Mfr.'s IMS bearing for only $10! They KNOW GOOD PARTS - at good prices!

Casper's IMS installation tools are second to none and LESS EXPENSIVE. Undoubtedly the wheel bearing tool will be a time (and money) saver too.

When is tool available? How much is he asking? I KNOW where to get it…guess I will make the call.

Thanks Eric!

OK, so in deciding where to start I chose the wheel bearings. The wheels came off and I pulled the tires off and got the rims over to the powder coater. The rotors and pads were changed last December so that put me next at the wheel bearings.

Casper Labs casperlabs.com has a new design that allows the replacement of a wheel bearing in ~1 hour/wheel wherein you do not have to remove the suspension the eccentric, nor do you need a hydraulic press for removal nor insertion of the bearings. The tool is fully functional for all four wheels.

Total cost for this project: Tools, wheel bearings and 5 hours time just under $500.00

Below is where I got the tool from:
Bill Ryan
Casper Labs, Inc.

Bill has helped a few folks on the lab and I came to know him through out local PCA chapter from another Boxster owner who he had helped.

I removed the carrier and pressed them out/in.
