Does anyone have one of these tools (SIR Hub/bearing extractor) handy for measurements? As I'm not a pro and won't be using this thing over and over again (I actually just need it for two hubs) , I think I can make something up if I have the dimensions. I really just need to make the U shaped yoke/"bridge", as I have a full bearing puller kit with corresponding adapters

I wound up making my own hub puller. After a couple (2) false starts (legs too long - had to shorten them and re-weld twice) I was able to get to work, and t performed perfectly. Pulling the hubs and bearing was a piece of cake!

Ok  Bill, I'll be up at my shop later on this afternoon/tonight. I'll try to remember to measure and post. Off hand I can say the depth is about 4.5" the width overall is about 7" and the two short bottom legs are 1.5 " ea. leaving roughly 4" between them. I used .5" x 1.5" steel for the top "spanner" The "legs & feet" are 1 "x .75". The hole for the bolt is .75"

Hey Bill, so I never got back with the precise measurements (went out of town for a few days and forgot about it)... Do you still need them, or were the approximate #'s good enough? FWIW, I didn't have any #'s when I made mine (though I did need to cut and re-weld the "legs" twice before I got it right :cursing: )
