Print in Place Toyota Steering Rack Center Seal Remover

thingiverse

It was very hard for me to press out the seal in the center of my steering rack because there is a very small difference between the inside diameter of the rack housing and the hole in the center of the seal, so all my sockets kept pushing straight through. Designed to be printed as one piece, then broken apart in the process of removing the seal or you could just cut them apart but cutting the three small pieces that connect the outer and inner part. In theory, the part should grow wider as more force is added to the top of it by having the center piece transfer the force to the outer circumference of the part, that way it stays as wide as it possibly can and hopefully not push through the center of the seal. You should use tooling or a socket that will only make contact with the center part, which is about 20mm diameter give or take.
