32940, Ball joint and tie rod removal tool - Miller MB991113
Posted by CODE4, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Anyone know where to buy MB991113 for a decent price? I rented a front end service kit from Advance today that included this tool:

Obviously a cheap ass knockoff and the bolt snapped under moderate pressure. Went to Ace to find a replacement bolt however the thread is unique/proprietary to the tool apparently.
The FSM calls out the Miller tool, as seen here http://www.etoolcart.com/tierodballjointseparator.aspx
Obviously more expensive but not as likely to fail. After some googling the average cost is around $140 for the correct tool. Anyone know of a better priced solution?
I am servicing lower control arms/lower ball joints with the axle in place.
