Pullers and Pushers

Pullers and pushers are indispensable hand tools in automotive mechanics, designed for safe and efficient removal or installation of components such as bearings, gears, pulleys, dowel pins, and more. Unlike makeshift methods, which can risk damaging parts or machinery, pullers and pushers deliver precision and control. By leveraging mechanical or hydraulic force, these tools make even the most challenging jobs—like extracting seized components or pressing fittings—manageable. Whether you're working on routine maintenance or a complex repair, pullers and pushers are critical for reducing downtime, improving safety, and preserving the integrity of your vehicle's components. Modern pullers and pushers come in a broad range of designs tailored to specific applications. From in-line dowel pin pullers like the Cal-Van Tools 95400 Master Set, which eliminates the need for a slide hammer and minimizes the risk of hand injuries, to heavy-duty universal pullers like the Kukko KK20-30, which handles demanding tasks involving bearings and pulleys, there is a tool for every situation. Key features often include versatile jaw configurations, durable steel construction, and compatibility with various sizes and materials. Specialty tools like Pitman arm pullers are uniquely crafted to fit confined spaces, such as GM truck steering systems, while maintaining superior strength through forged alloy designs. These tools provide the precision mechanics need to execute repairs efficiently and confidently. For automotive professionals, reliable pullers and pushers not only enhance productivity but also elevate the quality of workmanship. Designed to withstand daily use, they ensure that critical components are handled with care, contributing to a safer and more effective workflow in any auto shop.
