Default Just recieved new tool to R&R wh. bearings and hub

Just got the Sir Tools B-90 kit, interested to see if this thing is really worth the $. Our A4 2.8 30v is coming up on bearings, unfortunately. Anybody out there attempt a DIY of the wheel bearing?

Default Yes, went well, but not great......

Takes an enourmous amount of pressure on a good press to get the bearings out.
Only did right rear, rotor was kinda difficult to remove as well. Mostly because I wasnt aware of how to remove at first. It just press' off as well. Hit me up if you have any questions.

Thanks for the offer. I am going to do the rears first. This tool allows the user(supposedly) to press the bearing/hub in and out without having to take the suspension apart(ala no re-alignment).
