TBH mate i bet most peeps dont know how powerful their press is?

I would have thought 10 tonne would have been more than adequate. I will check mine tom and post the rating, it hasn ever failed to pop whatever bearing or bush i have thrown at it

Hi mate, I bought a 20 ton bottle jack style one of fleebay a few month ago, an excellent bit of kit. I did a front and rear wheel bearing with no problems, it was about 150 if I remember rightly including postage. It was heavy at about 100 kilos, I will look out the ebay link and pm you tonight.

Cheers guys,

I'll prob go with a 10 tonne one, the general consensus is that it will be fine.
