Perfect tool for removing front crankshaft oil seal during my timing belt service. I was able to get the camshaft seals with hose picks and a great deal of difficulty, but failed to get the crankshaft seal out. This tool took care of the crankshaft seal in 20 seconds, and would have made removing the cam seals so easily. If you work on cars you MUST purchase this tool. Lisle makes quality unique tools that solve auto-repair specific problems. Read more

Garbage - dont buy it. Tried to use it on a Toyota Crank Seal and broke the tip. Didnt get around to using it right away so couldnt return it. There is a reason they supply two tips as you will break them trying to use it. Save your money. Read more

I'm not a professional mechanic, but I've done all my own auto maintenance for the last decade. I've used this tool on half a dozen seals on two vehicles so far... This is the best tool by far I've used for this type of job, but for working under the hood, I could see a little room for improvement. It would be nice, for instance, if the length of the pivot could be adjusted somehow, and if the hook could be more easily removed and attached from the handle. It'd also be nice if the shaft were made of harder steel, because I managed to bend it on a particularly stubborn seal (though it was easy to straighten). On seals that have been replaced in a timely fashion, this tool will do as the video shows, popping out the seal almost effortlessly. However, on tired old seals overdue for replacement, it's not quite as idiot-proof. I want to stress that this is still an excellent tool, and made the job five times easier than the old pick and pull method I'd been using before. By all means, buy one if you intend to replace seals. Nothing I've seen has done it better, but still be prepared for a little time and effort. Read more

I have used many things to pull seals when they are still around the shaft, some tools were things I made, some tools I bought, and sometimes just a course threaded screw. But this is a great addition to the toolbox. If you are pulling a cam/crank seal on an import or some other type of small seal when the shaft is still installed in the part this tool works great. I have used it probably two dozen times since I bought it and am very pleased. I have not noticed any damage to the shafts an any occasion and the setup time was minimal. I could not imagine using this tool to pull a wheel seal or axle seal. For larger seals or seals where the shaft is not sticking through the middle of the seal there are better tools to use. If you are pulling a large seals chances are there is more room between the seal lip and the shaft and you can use something more substantial that this. My only complaint with this tool is that it comes with and extra blade but there is no place to put it. I just tied it to the shaft up near the handle with a piece of wire so I can find it if I ever break the original one. Bottom line, if someone stole this tool from me tomorrow I would but it again. Is this a tool that you have to have? No, you can get by using other methods to pull these types of seals. But it sure makes thing a lot easier and make the job go a little quicker. Read more
