OEMTOOLS Pitman Arm Puller & Ball Joint Separator Kit, 5-Pc with Case — Heavy-Duty, Workshop-Ready

The OEMTOOLS 26554 is a five-piece front-end suspension service kit that includes a heavy-duty pitman arm puller, ball joint separator, tie rod pullers, and a storage case for organized, damage-free removals.

This compact, workshop-ready set bundles the most common tools needed to remove and install pitman arms, ball joints, and tie rod ends. Each tool is built to withstand the leverage and force required for stubborn connections while minimizing the risk of harming nearby components. The included case keeps pieces together so you can move from the garage to the job site without losing parts or wasting time searching for the right tool.

How does this kit make pitman arm removal easier?

The heavy-duty pitman arm puller is designed to apply steady, centered force that separates the arm without bending or twisting surrounding steering components. Its construction handles repeated use on larger trucks and SUVs where pitman arms can be seized or corroded.

• Solid puller body for controlled pressure and precise alignment
• Threaded forcing screw to deliver consistent removal force
• Fits common pitman arm sizes across many domestic and light truck applications

Can I remove ball joints cleanly with this set?

Yes — the ball joint separator and puller elements let you separate ball joints without prying or hammering that can damage dust boots or mounting surfaces. The tools support both press-style and tapered-stud joints so you can complete jobs faster with fewer return visits.

• Separator design minimizes stress on ball joint boots and steering knuckles
• Adaptable contact points for different joint geometries
• Durable materials resist deformation under repeated pressure

What about tie rod end removal and alignment safety?

The tie rod pullers in this kit let you separate tie rod ends without overstressing linkage or steering racks, helping preserve factory alignment settings during service. Quick separation reduces the temptation to use damaging improvised methods, keeping components reusable when possible.

• Precision-fit separators reduce leverage on adjacent parts
• Works on inner and outer tie rod configurations depending on vehicle
• Speeds up removal to minimize shop time and alignment drift

How does the storage case improve workflow?

The rugged case organizes all five tools so every piece is immediately accessible, reducing search time and preventing lost hardware. Transport-friendly layout and secure latches mean the kit stays ready whether you’re moving between bays or bringing tools to a roadside job.

• Molded slots keep components in place and protected from impact
• Compact footprint fits standard tool chests or vehicle storage
• Clear organization speeds inventory checks and job preparation

Who is this for: Mechanics and DIYers who perform front-end suspension work on passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks will find this OEMTOOLS 5-piece kit valuable. It’s best for technicians who need durable, correctly sized pullers and separators to remove pitman arms, ball joints, and tie rod ends without harming surrounding parts, and for anyone who prefers a neatly packaged set that travels easily between jobs.
