Steck’s Axle Popper Helps Break Loose Stubborn Half Shafts

Steck Manufacturing Company has released the Axle Popper (P/N 71415).

Break loose half shafts from transaxles on FWD cars using your air hammer. Axle Popper II is Steck’s air tool version of its original Axle Popper Wedge (71411).

Like the wedge, the Axle Popper II is tapered on both ends of the wedge along with a 6” shaft to fit into your air hammer. The base of the Axle Popper II has been increased by 3/8” to give it additional strength while decreasing potential deflection with the increased power of your air hammer.

Safer than using a pry bar, the Axle Popper II wedge-forked end applies even pressure to both sides of the shaft for sure release of the shaft. The original Axle Popper Shim (71412), which is sold separately, can also be used with the Axle Popper II to fill the gap between the half shaft and the transaxle on some vehicles.
