Most of the Sir tool kits include adaptors that allow the tool to work and a wide variety of makes and models, making the tool extremely flexible for different applications.

Once you have done some Porsche wheel bearings with the Sir tool, you will never go back to taking the car apart and using a press; in a shop, you could not afford to.

The SIR tool is the way to go but it is a pricey tool . you can buy a press for a 100 bucks ! A little more work on the car by going the press route but it can also be used for many other things that the SIR tool can't . If mr Pdwight went the press route to begin with he would not be in the situation he is in . I understand that we need to get things done with the least amount of expense possible and the press will do that .
