Genius Graeme 8),

Obviously you are charging royalties of one stubby per use of these ideas  ;D ;D

The Dyna bolt is even re-useable  ;)

What's the go with the top one ?

Zip ties (look to the top of the pic) to check wheel alignment after a respoke/rebuild...

Hmm I have always had a brass 3/8 rod with a small lip that gets wheel bearing out everytime , but I like the Dyna bolt idea.

This part of a kit thing has traveled Oz with me and pulled heaps of seal out.







It is called a seal puller ;D

But saying that who does not admire ingenuity.

Thumbs up for the heat gun too Davey, very handy.
