For removing the bottom pulley on my engine, so that I can do the cambelt?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-3-jaw-hydraulic ... 19bf7b80ec
The gear at HSS is over £100 to hire for a day, so I am looking at these cheaper alternatives.
Does this kit turn into a triple leg puller?
Is this hydraulic puller suitable....

Re: Is this hydraulic puller suitable....
I bought a puller from Halfaurds for like £20 I think ages ago, that cut the mustard quite well.
Not sure if you need a hydraulic one tho.

We ALL make mistakes !!!

That kit is switchable between two and three leg setup. They work well but it can be a struggle to get them on some smaller diameter items. You should be ok with a standard set of pullers.

pull using the m8 fittings not legs.
I use a 'laser' brake caliper winding kit, with a modified plate, which has 2 8mm holes. Must of done over 100 cambelts with it.
Plus when using those holes its always worth chucking a tap through beforehand.

I've been advised to use this by one of the MR2OC guys:

How many bolt holes are in the pulley? I use either a 3 leg puller like this http://www.lasertools.co.uk/item.aspx?c ... item=556or one of these things http://www.lasertools.co.uk/item.aspx?cat=496&item=555 (NB have to find a pair of long bolts the right thread to use with the bar in the second kit but works well for pulling lots off stuff). Picked them up over the last few years cheap enough -been quite handy tools looking back.

Re: Is this hydraulic puller suitable....
So you undo the bolt in the middle of the pulley? If the engine's out of the car, how do you get this bolt undone?
Re: Is this hydraulic puller suitable....
i used a dewalt 18v impact wrench, you can use the holes in the pully to lock it off
