Silver axle joint puller model 10969 — workshop tool for removing CV joints and half-shafts

Silver axle joint puller model 10969 is a compact workshop tool designed for removing CV joints and half-shafts from vehicles. Built for controlled extraction, the tool helps technicians separate drive components without applying excessive force to the hub or transmission housing. Its purpose-built shape and contact surfaces reduce the risk of damage to seals and bearing edges during disassembly, making routine repairs and part replacement more efficient.

Advantages

The Silver puller provides precise axial force to extract CV joints and half-shafts while maintaining alignment with the axle, reducing the chance of bent studs or damaged housings. Its compact dimensions allow access in confined wheel-arch and suspension spaces, and the robust construction gives consistent performance under workshop loads. The tool’s contacting faces are designed to distribute pressure evenly, which helps protect mating surfaces and seals during removal.

Suitable for

• Removing constant velocity (CV) joints from front and rear drive axles
• Detaching half-shafts during differential or transmission service
• Workshop disassembly tasks where controlled axial extraction is required

Key specifications

• Application: extraction of CV joints and half-shafts in automotive repair
• Design: compact, purpose-built puller optimized for confined spaces
• Material and construction: durable metal construction intended for repeated workshop use
• Contact surfaces: shaped to distribute pressure and minimise damage to seals and bearing edges
• Compatibility: suitable for a wide range of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles (vehicle-specific fit depends on axle design)

How to use

Position the puller so its contacting faces engage the CV joint or half-shaft shoulder evenly, ensuring the tool is aligned with the axle axis. Apply controlled axial force using the puller’s driving mechanism or an appropriate press setup until the joint disengages from the hub or transmission flange. Inspect mating surfaces and seals after removal and clean any debris before installing replacement parts. Follow vehicle manufacturer guidance for disassembly clearances and any required supporting fixtures.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and support the vehicle securely on jack stands or a lift. Verify that the selected puller orientation matches the axle design on the vehicle and avoid applying off-axis force. If excessive resistance is encountered, check for retaining clips or fasteners and consult vehicle-specific service information before continuing.
