I took a chance on this since there were no reviews and I had never heard of the brand. However, the pictures looked identical to another kit listed under a different brand name for about $10 more, and it had good reviews.I am glad I took a chance on this, because it is fantastic! The kit is much larger and heavier than I was expecting. It came in a very heavy box, and inside that box was another box. Inside that box, was another box. Then after opening 3 layers of cardboard boxes, I pulled out the kit. The storage case is nicer quality than I expected and seems like it should hold up for a long time. The kit in the case is much heavier than I expected.The bearings attached to the nuts were already lightly greased and the threaded shafts had a light coating of oil on them too. Everything seemed to be precisely machined and fit together as expected. All the parts fit nicely into the storage case.I got the kit yesterday, and today I put it to work removing and installing some control arm bushings in my Audi. It worked great. Having an impact wrench made the removal much easier, it would have been difficult doing it by hand with wrenches. However, I was able to press in the new bushings by hand just using a couple of wrenches.My old bushings were stuck in there pretty good, and I used my mid-torque Milwaukee impact on the kit to press them out. I was half expecting part of the kit to break, whether it was the threaded rod or a bearing or something, but it held up just fine even with an impact wrench.From what I have seen out of this tool so far, I expect it to last me a lifetime as an amateur/weekend mechanic.Some of my pictures show a large movie theater size of junior mints for a size reference. This kit is big and heavy!Edit 12-17-2018:I did find this kit was unable to move the largest front suspension bushings on my car (2003 Audi A4). My impact hammered away it it for a good solid minute with the bushing not budging at all. Perhaps if I had a more powerful impact wrench it would have worked, but rather than chance it I went out and bought a cheap 12 ton hydraulic press which did the job with no sweat. I still used the bushing cups from this kit with the hydraulic press, and they held up just fine.So be aware that depending on the size of your bushings and the power of your impact wrench this may or may not do the job. It will handle smaller bushings easily, but larger bushings might not be going anywhere. It's still worth buying though because it's fairly cheap and you can use the cups with a hydraulic press if you need to.Factoring in the price of this kit, the hydraulic press, and even a high torque impact wrench if I would have bought one, I saved a lot of money doing this work on my car myself. A shop quoted me almost $2,000 for the job so this kit can easily pay for itself with one use.

This really got me out of the jam. The dealer wanted $1000 to replace bushings in my control arms. I bought these for a 10th of the price. They were extremely easy to use. They’re extremely heavy and durable. One of my guys used an impact on it and it did damage the one threads, but he should not have used it that way. It has all different sizes which makes for very easy removal. The value for the money is incredible. I would recommend this product to anyone who works on cars.

Take it from an Engineer. This tool is much better than using a Ball Joint Press to remove and install Control Arm bushings. The only negative is that it doesn't come with Instructions but, if you're a Mechanic, it's pretty much self-explanatory.I noticed that several other reviewers complained about the Ball Bearings falling apart. I'd just like to say that there's absolutely nothing wrong with the Ball Bearing - Thrust Bearings. However, the Bearings must be packed with an Extreme Pressure EP Grease before use. I found that the easiest way to pack the Bearings is by using a Grease Gun that is equipped with a Needle Style Adapter at the end of the hose.The other very important thing to know is that this Tool is designed to be used with HAND TOOLS ONLY. If you make the mistake of using Power Tools like an Impact Wrench or Air Ratchet, you will destroy the Bearings and the Threads on the Rods. Be patient and take it slow!

These worked great with my homemade press to remove wheel bushings from a steering knuckle

Some of the rods broke while I was trying to change bushings on a control arm. It still did the job but I won't be able to use them again.

Buen juego aunque no era lo que yo buscaba

Used for cradle insulators on a cruze and worked perfectly. Was surprised by the weight of the parts and the bolts had thrust bearing on both sides. Not sure how long they would hold up in everyday shop use with impact, but I would be willing to try.
