After buying and returning the GRIP set, I ordered these.

What a difference. This set is night and day better than the other.

Handles screw in straight, casting marks are mostly ground away, and the shank for the air hammer actually fits like it's supposed to.

Well worth the money to get this kit over the other. Very satisfied.

As a side note, on the back of the package label, it indicates that the end of each handle (or hammer adapter) has a point at the end which drives the tool, rather than driving by the threads. This should prevent thread deformation under high impact. Very nice touch.

I have owned this kit for 4+ years now, and the kit has proved to be a usefull tool. Recently I broke one of the forks and havent been able to find a replacement single fork. I see the kits all over the net but I cant seem to find replacement parts.

I've had this lisle tool for years. Coupled with an air chisel this make child's play of removing ball joints and tie rod ends.

Not used in anger yet but seem okay, more of there if needed tool for me.
Casting quality is not bad and much better than some I have seen.
The conincal base on the shafts means that the forces is NOT transmitted via the thread which is good.
The pnematic hammer shaft fits my generic hammer okay.

As a side note there is a debate if pickle forks are good to use, generally they can damage the joint so best to replace.
Use a bolt type UJ splitter if you have to re-use parts.

Used this to complete front end work on my vintage car. Very good set, especially for the price. I was dealing with parts that have been attached for 40 years; only slight mushrooming on the handle. I have not used the pneumatic aspect of it but I don't see why it would't work so ling as the compressor can provide the air. Would not recommend for everyday use (although it could last) but a great set for a DIY mechanic.

Nice kit, multifunctional. Prefer the popping tools but when you need a fork, why not buy US quality since it isn't much less than HF anymore.

Durable pickle fork kit, no much to it. Either use a hammer or attach to an air hammer. Works good!

Type of tool that when you need it, you need it. Seperated ball joints and tie rod ends well. Seller shipped fast. Good Price. Package plastic was brittle and broken but did not affect tool quailty at all, just can't use it as holder. Very Happy
