Pilot Bearing Tools

[urq]

OTC-1172 is the number stamped on the puller I have ... this tool has a two
arm inside puller with a slide hammer attached to the end.  I've never had a
problem removing a pilot bearing that the factory installed ... but I did
have a real PITA getting one that I tried to install which was the wrong
size ... make sure your replacement pilot bearing fits over the tranny input
shaft before you put it all back together!

HTH!
