GEN2 Bearing Fitting & Removal Tool proving a success

Many of you will be familiar with the GEN2 Tool designed for mounting and dismounting modern GEN2 wheel hub bearing units. The current kit has proved to be a popular seller having been designed for vehicles with 72mm bearings like the Audi A2 (2000 onwards), Skoda Fabia (2000 onwards) and the VW Polo (2002 onwards).

We have had a few people ask us if there are other parts available to fit different sized bearings and the good news is that we are in the process of testing further sizes for this tool with the help of our friends at FAG bearings. They have provided us with some great advice as well as performing various bearing tests so watch this space for news of other sizes that will be available for this kit. 

See a preview at Mechanex – Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire on the 20th and 21st September
