I needed a bearing splitter/puller, didn't want to buy cheap one and didn't have the money for the goods so I used my engine mounts... Didn't expect it to work but I got both the diff bearing off so far only one was totally trashed

Well it didn't work so well on the pinion bearing. The one motor mounts started to take on new shapes and bent one of the 1/4 inch mild steel adapters I made for pulling from the longer shaft. I'll try a real tool for that one I guess, didn't mess up the bearing too bad though.
