Overview of popular models of CV joint pullers
If the wheel begins to make a rhythmic knock or rattle when turning, then it is not necessary to contact a car repair shop for diagnostics. You can fix the malfunction caused by the damaged hinge yourself using a special puller. It consists of squeezing or pulling mechanisms by which the CV joint ("grenade") is easily and safely removed outward.
Advantages of dismantling with a puller:
- quick and easy (the procedure will take no more than 30 minutes, and even a novice in repair can handle it);
- you don’t have to get very dirty;
- minimal risk of damage to the “grenade” (as happens when using a hammer, mount or other homemade method).
If you order a universal tool for extracting the external and internal CV joint "VAZ 2109", then it is suitable for most and other Russian cars.

Universal outer CV joint puller
The tool is convenient for dismantling the chassis elements without removing the drive axle. The design consists of two corners with a clamp, connected in the center by a sleeve (eye). The device is made using hardening technology, so it is highly durable.
Principle of operation:
- Insert the shank into the eye and screw the nut in 2-3 turns.
- Fasten the clamp in the form of 2 strips to the drive shaft with bolts.
- Put the nut on the head and tighten until the "grenade" is removed.
The CV joint puller "VAZ 2110" is suitable for removing the external hinges of most front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles. The operating range of the device is 11-24 cm, the distance between the guides is up to 10 cm, and the diameter of the axial hole is no more than 3 cm.
Universal CV joint puller with reverse hammer Licota ATC-2139
Using this inertial tool, you can remove the chassis elements without removing the entire vehicle suspension unit. The mechanism works on the principle of a reverse hammer:
- One part of the steel bar is fixed to the shank.
- The driving "weight" (weighing 2,3 kg) is attached to the axle shaft with the help of a pharynx and is tightened with a hub nut.
- With a sharp movement, the hammer is pulled to the opposite part of the rod, which leads to the release of the hinge from the spline connection.
CV joint puller with steel cable Licota ATC-2142
This model consists of a long pin and an adjustable loop. The metal cable is tightly tightened around the base of the hinge and with a quick pickup, the running element is pulled out of the hub.
The disconnection process is instantaneous, but requires some skill and 2-handed work, since the device weighs almost 5 kg. The high cost of the unit in Russia (6750 ₽) in comparison with other models scares off some car owners.
