Thanks for your reply.

Almost pulled the trigger on the Novarossi ones, but read from somewhere that it only pulls the bearings out, can not install them.

Not sure why they came up with a bearing puller only, and no installer.

Hudy engine tool kit is one of those tools that when you use it once will never go back for another tool. IMHO it worth every penny.

The same Hudy tool does both .12 and .21 engines but come only with one of the collars, so be sure you get the right one.

After too many years with oven gloves, I used a heat gun and the tool and a huge sigh escaped me from all the stress doing it the old way. It's lovely to use and good for your engine.

I had the same experience. Many years using the oven, reluctant to spend $100 in that tool, one day a friend that had one showed me how easy he removed the bearings from his engines. Bought it and never looked back, now it's almost a pleasure to remove/insert the bearings on my engines. I also use a heat gun to make things smooth.

^^^^^This x 1000^^^^^

My Hudy bearing tool is one of the "non-essential" RC purchases I have zero regrets about making. I've gotten quite a bit of use out of it, as well as replaced bearings for many of my RC buddies. Very nice tool.....

Hudy is the best here... Don't use cheap tools...
