I thought I would share this. I'm sure we all know how hard it is to get the axles out without damaging the threads. Previously I always used my portapower chained to the frame which can be dangerous and I just had one pressured up for a couple of days with no movement. After getting a bit impatient I decided to buy a 20ton garage press and I must say, this would have to be the easiest, safest and most effective way of getting them out. I pressed 8 or 9 Yesterday with no damage what so ever and where the porta power did nothing, the press pushed them out with ease. I will also use it for pressing out the floating arm pins as well.
The right tool for the job.
