A new solution, building on the legendary OTC 7249 C-frame ball joint kit. This extra-large C-frame uses stainless steel ball bearings to securely hold cups and adapters, making it easier to setup your press to remove and install ball joints, U-joints, wheel studs and more. The starter kit includes 7 cups and adapters for more than 230 vehicle applications, 38% more vehicle models than competitive C-frame kits.
Fully compatible with existing OTC ball joint kits, expand your vehicle applications and make R&I of ball joints and suspension components faster and easier. Starter kit comes with a 17-page manual with YMME information and adapter part numbers based on vehicle application.
The impact-rated forcing screw pushes with up to 10 tons of force and features a striking cap to shock ball joints loose. Striking cap also helps align components for installation. A proprietary coating helps extend forcing screw durability and lifespan, for years of trouble-free service.
Our connected adapter C-frame is the largest available at 2-3/4" deep x 9" wide, able to handle 3/4-ton and 1-ton suspension components. Pair with your OTC 7249, 6529, 6539, 6559 kits and more to build a ball joint kit for all vehicles, or upgrade to the CA6630 Professional Kit with 25 connected cups and adapters to handle more than 600 vehicle models.
Add up to 18 available connected adapters, purchased individually or as the CA6630 Professional Kit, to cover more than 600 vehicle models. Available CA6630MAN-18 manual features fully illustrated diagrams and how-to instructions by YMME, adapter and vehicle-specific applications.
