Let me throw an alternative, look at the OTC grappler, I think it can pull the hub and bearing without having to remove the parking brake shoes, that plus the harbor freight front wheel bearing kit (instead of the grappler kit) should come in closer to $200. Removing this parking brake shoes is very fiddly. If I ever have to another bearing I'm going to try that route.

However, you know the SIR tool is a proven quantity, maybe you can get a loaner?
