This kit is awesome. I had a inner bearing race weld itself to my axle shaft. (89 F350 with dana 60 ~ ford 10.25 rear end).. After beating the tar out of it to get it off of the shaft. My threads were shot to what i thought was beyond repair. 10 minutes of running this die back and forth over it, and it was good as new!! highly recommended. Great job hardening the dies, and the onboard tool accepts 1/2" ratchet.. very nice.. Did i mention made in the USA? -saves buying all new axle. Available sizes i found at kastars website. then bought it.. looks like it fits darn near every axle...
