Why This Tool Matters
Steering knuckle removal is a precision task that demands the right tool. A poorly designed spreader can slip, damage the knuckle, or fail under load—all costly outcomes. This tool's tapered head design with the integrated silver-metal ring adapter ensures positive engagement across the specified diameter range. The 400mm length gives technicians the leverage they need without requiring excessive force, reducing fatigue and the risk of tool breakage or component damage.
The dual drive capability—1/2" square or 27mm wrench—means one tool works across your entire shop fleet, whether pneumatic or manual-drive preferred.
