EBay is where I got mine. A little over a hundred bucks, and very nice tools. One seller bundles the remover, installer and plate all in one package. Worked flawlessly for me....

Same here. Although I bought mine separate. Here's some listings.

I also bought mine on eBay. The tools worked great one time and one of the long bolts that screw into the plate stripped so, check out the reviews before spending your $$ on eBay

Me too. I don't like the "blind" type of bearing tools at all. Gary's tool is machined to exacting specs and tolerances. Plus he machines the seating lip to ensure that the new bearings are seated to the proper depth and no further.

that is all a waste of money. just get a blind bearing puller from autozone. they even have bearing drivers if you want it.(a socket does fine). then get your money back when your done.. i worked in bike shops for 13 years.. we didn't even use the factory tools there most of the time. they are usually expensive junk, just designed to make more money. real tools work better.
