Had my garage broken into over 5 years ago and still finding tools that went missing, the latest of which is a 3 legged puller. Any recommendation for a cost effective unit? Had a look at the Hilka one from Screwfix which has good reviews for the smaller unit but mixed for the larger one. What have you used? P.  |

Bought a bearing splitter from screwfix and it bent the first time I used it
Does have yhe advantage of being able to return stuff, and my local branch has adopted the ’ we don’t care what's wrong, we’ll exchange it ‘ approach 😀
Got any local autojumbles? Sykes pickavant in my usual go- to for stuff like this

All my pullers are Kukko, if you're not in a rush you can find reasonably priced used ones on eBay. They're virtually indestructible, but should any part fail due to abuse you can get replacement parts from the manufacturer.

Having looked at the prices think I will 'invest' £15 in the Screwfix one. Will keep my eye open for the Kukko ones. Thanks for your input. P. |

The Sykes stuff really is great as bits are easy as loads of second hand odds and ends on Ebay Face book etc Having spent years rooting around Car Boots and Auto jumbles and seeing odds and ends of Sykes Pullers, I started buying any bits I saw, after 5 years of buying and swapping bits I now have a decent set, but was stuck last year for a tiny puller so paid £6 for an Ebay one! I do have a spare Sykes two leg if thats any use to you PM me |

It will come in handy even if you never use it
