Yeah, I actually got it in today. I tried so many different things, oil, grease ect... but nothing worked. So i gave up and pulled it out and drove with the axel out for a week in order to get around. I made sure it was just short trips lol. Anyways, the tool finally came in and i reinstalled it and it went perfectly fine. If i had to guess its probably because my wheel hub has over 120k miles on it and the axel i got had 42k. Since these are both used parts that probably worse down slightly different over there age they just wouldnt fit no matter what i did, but with the tool it glided right in. I didnt even have to use any force.
This is the tool thats a life saver and i highly, highly suggest anyone replacing an axel with on there car with high mileage and your also replacing it with another used one to buy this tool before even attempting the repair. This tool was only availible on ebay, i so wish amazon had it since that would have saved me a huge headache.
