Abstract:
A hub puller for removing the hub from a wheel bearing, the hub puller comprising:a frame having a pair of opposed members; a forcing screw having a threaded portion; said forcing screw engaging one of said members in such a manner that said forcing screw may be rotated relative to said one member without causing axial translation of said screw; a hub mover threadably engaged with said threaded portion of said forcing screw such that when said forcing screw is rotated and said hub mover is held to prevent rotation with said forcing screw, said hub mover translates axially along said threaded portion of said forcing screw away from said one member and toward the other member, said other member being generally C-shaped presenting a central cavity; and a generally C-shaped adaptor presenting a second cavity, smaller than said central cavity, said C-shaped adaptor being detachably mountable to said structure such that said second cavity is concentric with said central cavity.
