Axle Popper Fork Tool for Steck Manufacturing

The Steck Manufacturing Company was founded in 1946 by George Steck, initially operating as Steck's Paint & Body Shop. In the late 1940s, George entered the manufacturing industry when he and a partner developed a fastener used for installing rear fenders. The rest, as they say, is history. For over fifty years, Steck has continuously manufactured tools and equipment for the collision repair industry, all while operating from the same location in Dayton, Ohio. George Steck's original body shop building remains an integral part of the Steck Manufacturing complex, and the company still maintains a body shop for research and development purposes.

The Steck Manufacturing Company's product line includes a tool designed to simplify the process of separating the half shaft from the transaxle case. This tool, which is included in the kit, features a forked design that is inserted between the transaxle case and the half shaft. By striking the end of the fork, the user can safely and effectively release the half shaft, without the need for a potentially risky pry bar.

Additionally, the kit includes a shim that can be used to fill larger gaps that may be present on some vehicles. This shim ensures that the tool applies even pressure to both sides of the shaft, providing a more secure and controlled separation.

The Steck Manufacturing Company's commitment to innovation and quality has earned it a reputation for producing reliable and user-friendly tools for the collision repair industry. The company's continued success and longevity are a testament to the vision and dedication of its founder, George Steck, and the team of skilled professionals who have carried on his legacy.
