Whiteline Press Tool Kit (Front and Rear)
Multiple Subaru Models Fitment
WTK001
Overview:
The Whiteline Press Tool Kit is a comprehensive solution designed specifically for pressing suspension bushings on most Subaru models. Unlike makeshift methods using old bearing shells or sockets, this kit offers a safer and more reliable way to install and remove bushings, bearings, and spherical joints. Crafted for both professional workshops and home garages, it simplifies suspension maintenance and upgrades, especially when working with Whiteline polyurethane bushings.
This kit is ideal for Subaru enthusiasts and mechanics who want to ensure precision and safety during suspension servicing. It reduces the effort required to press components in or out, making the process more efficient and less reliant on power tools.
Key Features:
The Whiteline Press Tool Kit includes a versatile range of tools engineered for durability and ease of use:
- Contains 18 mild steel sleeves ranging from 28mm to 113mm in diameter, increasing in 5mm increments to fit a wide variety of bushings and bearings.
- Includes 4 press plates and 4 pulling spindles compatible with bolt sizes M10, M12, M14, and M16 for broad application coverage.
- Spindles feature rolled threads for enhanced strength and durability during pressing operations.
- Nuts are equipped with double washers and encapsulated lubricated ball bearings to prevent binding and thread stripping, ensuring smooth operation and longevity.
- Mild steel construction of sleeves allows controlled distortion or crushing if over-pressed, preventing dangerous shattering common with heat-treated steel tools.
- Designed to work with workshop presses or can be used directly on vehicles, providing flexibility in various working environments.
- Ideal for installing and removing suspension bushings, bearings, spherical joints, and other press-fit components safely and efficiently.
Construction & Design:
The tool kit’s sleeves are made from mild steel, a deliberate choice to allow slight deformation under excessive pressure, which enhances safety by preventing sudden breakage. The spindles’ rolled threads and the use of lubricated ball bearings in the nuts contribute to smooth, reliable operation and extended tool life. This thoughtful design reduces the physical effort needed to press components, making it accessible even without power tools.
All components are precision-engineered to fit a wide range of Subaru suspension parts, ensuring compatibility and reducing the risk of damage during installation or removal.
Installation & Fitment:
This kit fits most Subaru models, covering a broad spectrum of front and rear suspension bushings. It is designed to be used with standard workshop presses or directly on the vehicle, providing versatility for different working conditions.
No special modifications, cutting, or drilling are required to use these tools. The kit’s range of sleeves and press plates accommodates various bushing sizes and bolt diameters commonly found in Subaru suspensions.
- Compatible with bolt sizes M10, M12, M14, and M16.
- Suitable for both front and rear suspension components.
- Can be used safely without power tools, reducing the risk of damage or injury.
