What brand/part number for a good cam bearing install tool?
I found a Lisle 18000 Universal cam bearing install/removal tool for sale locally. Is this a decent tool to do the cam bearings with?

I really like the Snap On one. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=all&item_ID=11748&group_ID=1584&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog

I've got one of the Lisle tools, but I like the Snap On one better.

Thanks. The Lisle one looks like the Snap On one. Guy wants $75 for it. Gonna check it out tomorrow.

Is there a cone that helps center the mandrel to the cam tunnel in the Lisle kit? That is what is the best part about the Snap on deal. $75 sounds like a good deal. The Snap On one was $225. I just go steal my neighbors.

I have the snap-on one. I used the Lysle years ago but it had individual rubber rings and not the sleeve like the snap-on. I prefer the sleeve to protect the bearing surface.

i have had mine about 15 years i bought it used off the snap on truck looks just like a snap on without any marking on it the snap on guy said it was a snop on but with no marking no sure but it was $100 cheaper than a new one.

I've used the proform quite a few times with good results.
