My new favorite tool: Slide Hammer Vice Grips
Sometimes nothing else works :shock:

I'd like to borrow that to use on some teeth of some people I don't care for very much :evil: 8-)

You need a better weight on it.

that's easy enough...wrap the slide with some lead sheathing a couple times, and you'll gain a quick couple lbs.

I don't know... I used it today for the first time and was blown away at how well it worked.
Besides.... I had all the stuff laying around and didn't have to buy anything  8-)

A stuck 03 cr250 exhaust valve shaft.
I tried all my tricks and was frustrated after about 45 minutes of dinking with it.
So I made the Slidegrips and had it out in about 30 seconds and that includes wiping my hand off and putting my tools away  :-)

Swing arm bolts???
Good gravy!
No wonder you said it needs to be heavier.
I wont be using it for anything that heavy.
I have a really nice collection of swing arm bolts and axles for that  :lol:
