On the first one, I left the seal in place because I saw on YouTube this trick that would remove both in one swoop. It worked pretty well! On the second one I was determined to see if I could remove the seal on its own since that’s why I was here. So without the seal, for some reason the puller was more difficult to center in the bearing. Well, one side of the puller had no grip on the cage of the bearing, only the rollers. The outboard of the cage shattered. I used the 3 prong puller attachment from my slide hammer to get it out. Thankfully it worked. You see, the problem is the largest size was just a tad too big and could not be fully straightened out. The middle size I used was a skosh too small. There is a specialty puller attachment made for this axle (J44685) but it’s super expensive and hard to find. Overall good quality but I’d pass if this is the vehicle you’re working on. Review: Excellent quality, great product. - Worked awesome for pulling rear axle bearing and seal out on my 2009 Ford Ranger 2WD. Comes in a nice plastic box to keep them organized. Great product and excellent quality! Great investment. Don't forget you need a slide hammer (or some other puller) to thread onto it. I borrowed one from Canadian Tire for free.
