Says not to use with an impact wrench, but keep the threads well-greased and you shouldn't have a problem. I probably wouldn't try to use this with a super high-torque impact, but I had great success using it with an 18V mid-torque impact wrench.
I do wish it came with a greater variety of cups and adapters, but I made it work. I guess that's what the larger set is for...
Tried to use it to press new ball join in - but same deal - one ring is right on the edge of the joint body, another it too small, next one too big. Again just hammered it in side to side old school.
And the press itself its not wide enough - hardly grabs the thread edge.
Anywho, I think it should be at least an inch wider and have more rings options.
Second, the thread are too loose, so it does not hold a straight line when under pressure.
Third, the G-Clamp itself flexes under pressure.
We stop using it, this tool is not strong enough to do the job. Things can fly off under high stress like in this situation when all parts no line-up in a straight line. Someone can get hurt.
Thank goodness another mechanic have a different set from another vendor to finish the job.

1- for some reason the jackscrew came screwed upside down. It also came with no lubricant/oil and with quite a bit of dirt/particles within the treads.
2- the manual states that the you should consult the models for which the kit can be used before buying. Not sure how you can read the manual before buying the kit, but whatever.
3- right after this, the manual presents a list of vehicles for which this kit can be used. It also states that the list is not comprehensive. So you need to consult the manual but the manual isn’t comprehensive.
4- be aware that this thing cannot be used with an impact wrench.
5- some vehicles are listed as “remove” but not “install”. Not sure how this works, but maybe someone might be able to get the ball joint out but not install a new one. My Jeep Liberty is listed as such.
Once I have used it to replace I will update this review.

Second thing I noticed was the shaft didn't thread easily. Do yourself a favor and put some oil or light grease on the threads.
Despite the warnings I used my air impact wrench and the tool no problems pressing out the existing, 20 year old OEM ball joints!
Fitting the new joints was a problem though. The top joints went in fine once everything was lined up. Unfortunately none of the cups fit the bottom joints which made it difficult to line up the tool straight. I chose a cup that was a bit small and the installation force flared end the cup! I also noticed some deflection in the base of one of the caps used.
But it worked for the removal and installation, it survived my 3/4" impact wrench, the case seems sturdy, and the price is right. Three stars, four if the cup had fitted and not flared.

Installing the new joints went a LOT better than the removal. Again, I'll point out that for my exact application I had to carefully press the ball joints into the axle while the press was not square. It requires a little patience. To ensure I did not get the new joints wedged in a bad way, I had to press them in a little bit, check them, and realign the press as necessary so it would apply more force on a particular side to straighten it out. Once the ball joint was in deep enough this wasn't a problem, but the initial insertion required patience. This is because the kit does not have any adapters that align perfectly to this job.
For those of you with the same generation Dodge Ram 2500, Cummins, live front axle, this kit will work, but it's not a perfect fit.
All in all, it worked. The tool absolutely held up to the job. Oh, one more thing, be sure you lubricate the press-screw liberally, otherwise you will probably start to encounter some galling and that could end up ruining the press and worse, leaving you stuck with job partially done. The lubrication makes the press work a LOT better. I used Permatex Anti-Sieze Compound, which worked great.

Unreliable, complete waste of time and money. Why are you even selling this on here? You will lose money on all the returns you get
