Motion Pro (08-0486) 35mm - 36mm Ringer Fork Seal Driver

I bought this after I struggled to seat the oil seals in my sons 2007 Honda CRF150R. The Pivot Works front fork rebuild kit that I used had very stubborn fork oil seals, even after watching a few YouTube videos (using the cut 1 3/4” PVC pipe to tap them in), those seals were not budging - at one point I thought I might’ve actually torn one of the seals, so I stopped. I must’ve spent three hours trying to move those seals, in between the tapping, trying different things, modifying my handmade driver, and out of desperation I gave up and bought this tool. It took me about 30 seconds of tapping with this tool - The sheer weight of this tool drives that seal in easy. Wow!! So worth it. I bought the 37mm for his dirtbike and the tool itself is almost like one of those artsy desk puzzles… a blue anodized diamond! This tool has some serious weight to it, but like in a good quality way. The craftsmanship/engineering is top notch and ease-of-use is definitely five star. Unlike the other reviewer‘s mine was brand new, not used/returned.Although I’ll probably never use this tool again, I’m keeping it. Motion Pro did me a solid with this thing, less stress, time savings, and reclaiming my garage space back by getting this dirtbike back together, so worth it! If you’re using Honda OEM bushings and seals they might ease in a lot easier and you might be able get away with using the PVC tool technique or a cheaper alternative, but if you bought the Pivot Works rebuild kit for your forks, get ready for a struggle. This is the SOLUTION!! A little spendy, but it’s worth the money just in the time savings alone, believe me.

I am a trained mechanic and although I left the industry a few years ago I still do work out of my garage. Even though it is tempting to go cheap with things like this I recommend paying more for the better tool. Driving a fork seal home can be a real challenge using one of those plastic drivers that are designed to work on different size forks. Motion Pro makes great tools and you will appreciate how well made it is. This is a tool you will use for the rest of your life.

I cannot review this particular product, as Amazon has been unable to successfully deliver the correct, new product to me. I have received a used tool from one of their suppliers, and received the wrong tool from another. However, based on the similar tools I currently own, they work great, are well constructed and are easy to use. I will definitely be buying this one, albeit from another source

Tried another brand and the center was oblong, returned that one for a new one and same issue, oblong/not round and wouldn't slide. Returned that one again and went with this brand, snapped it on and seated my seals in 5 minutes. Only thing I'm bummed about is not just ordering this one to begin with. 41mm Harley fork tubes and 41mm tool worked perfect and easily.

Don't mess around with a universal kit, just go for the size you need. Motion Pro certainly knows what they want for their tools, but this driver is very slick and has a good feel for when the seal is seated.

Initially I bought one of those "universal" fork seal drivers, bad idea it was trash. You're better off getting this one that works perfectly and no headaches. works great for my 2006 yz125 and 2007 yz250f.

As with others who purchased this product on Amazon, mine arrived used (clearly dirty old fork seal oil and grime) but not damaged and so with the speed of delivery by amazon and the fact that these seal drivers are essentially a lifetime of use and durability its still a reasonable buy.

Easy to use, you can use it with the fork tubes still mounted on your bike because it splits in half and you don’t have to worry about it coming apart. Excellent quality as is what you expect from Motion Pro.

I decided to save a bundle by doing my fork seal replacement myself..So great was the saving from the dealership that I splashed out on the proper fork seal tool.It made the job ridiculously easy..My dealer wanted £125 and that was with me dropping off the forks already removed from my bike !!So the cost of this tool was a no brainer for me !

This is a really nice, solid, properly weighted tool well designed for the exact purpose of putting seals into motorcycle forks. Seals last longer when they are installed properly so this tool is a no brainer. I really like all these Motion Pro specialty tools.

Right diameter but its too tights to push the seal all the way down in place, it got stuck in the inner tube fork, i had to do the e-tape trick instead.

Works like a charm. Yah it only will work for the size you order but man, easiest and cleanest driver I've ever used. Perfect contact area and unlike a universal it never drives unevenly. Plus the ability to lock the halves together with the knurled band is sweet, you would have to be trying in order to slip and throw this driver.

Well build does it’s job worth every penny. Used regularly only trouble is if the fork protector’s bolts are stuck it’s a little tight but still capable
