Orders Update!
Pre-orders from a month ago are now being shipped.
NOTE ABOUT PRE-ORDERS. I’m again out of some ALT Extractor inventory. I really wanted to stop doing pre-orders, but then customers who want to get in line won’t be able to. So, until I catch up with demand, please place an order and be prepared to wait a month until all the pieces you require are in stock. IF YOU CAN’T wait, feel free to email me with what you want and I’ll tell you if I can fulfill your order.
ALT Extractors sold out again. Manufacturing has begun and is expected in 3 weeks. We all know how that goes.
Acetal and aluminum pieces are in stock.
Orders containing any pieces that are out of stock will be held until inventory arrives.

Updated Hub & Suspension Bearing Press System
The system has been updated to increase the versatility!
The new Drift RE in the system has a relief side that presses only the bearing outer ring. This allows the new system to install preloaded bearings into hubs and can now handle installation of bearings with extended inner rings.
Many of the pieces of the new system are also available in aluminum which has better durability and also offers greater stiffness when leveraging the removal of a bearing against a small surface surrounding the bearing.

“A game-changing bearing press for home mechanics… And dare I say, it’s more versatile than many professional tools available.”

The ALT Extractor
Removes the First BSB* Bearing!
The new ALT Extractor is designed as an alternative to a punch & hammer or a blind bearing puller in a BSB configuration* where two bearings are separated by a bearing spacer. Like in a hub, freehub, seat post or linkage.
The ALT Extractor works with the leveraging pieces of the rest of the bearing press system.
*BSB - Bearing, Spacer, Bearing configuration
The ALT Extractor is currently in production. Pre-orders now open. Shipping expected late September.
