E30 rear wheel bearing tool - $100 - Only used Once!

[mintscorpion]

I bought this tool a couple of years ago for $350 and I only used it once. It works perfectly and makes changing the rear wheel bearings very easy. If you're interested or have any questions, give me a call/text at 760.845.3555. I'm located in North County San Diego.

I won't ship, sorry! I have several local parties interested.

Hm... I'm in SD, are you available for me to check it out this weekend?

[MR 325]

Damn it, why didn't you have this 2 months ago!

if Zasz passes on it and you don't mind shipping (80401), i'd be interested.

[M-technik-3]

I assume the tool is sold already so the OP won't mind if I show the tool I use:




it's a coil spring compressor available from Amazon for 25 to 40 bucks, and possibly rentable from some autoparts stores like Autozone and Checker.

I use it with a circular piece of scrap steel cut into a big steel washer, a 30 mm Harbor Freight impact socket, an extra bearing (used is ok), and a couple of other impact sockets of no particular size that are used lengthwise to space the tool from the trailing arm housing:



for removing, the beveled edge of spring compressor fits nicely against the bearing on the backside as the bolt is routed through the bearing. On the front side, the steel washer installed on the bolt pushes against the smaller impact sockets which rest against the trailing arm bearing housing. It's a little tricky to setup the impact sockets so that the bearing doesn't hit against them as it comes out, but with three hands it's easily done.

For installation, the 30 mm socket is just the right size to be a guide so that the used bearing is perfectly aligned to push on the new bearing. On the back side, the washer lines up against the back of the trailing arm housing, and the power of the bolt easily pushes the bearing uniformly into the trailing arm housing.

edit: I just noticed that I posted this in the for sale section mistakenly. I'm going to try to copy the text into a post in the technical section.
