Re: I can't find a rental place to rent Kent Moore...
I'd be willing to bet that a standard ball joint remover/installer would work on this application. Looks like a big "c" clamp with adapters to fit into place. A large screw aids in the install.

Of course this requires a specail Kent Moore tool but I have removed the ignition switches with a pair of pin punches looking at the switch from key side there are two holes to place the punches press them in and pull down on switch. the lock cylinder comes out by starting in lock position and pressing the small pin on its side and rotating cylinder to the on position and pull out.
if it does not just easily press in, it is probably a ''screw-in'' type caliper. you can rent the specialty tool from any advance, autozone, type parts stores...
Hello: To do that job, you need kent moore thread repair kit # J39345. This has all the tools you need and also 20 time serts. You can not get a lasting repair with hei-coil. They will not hold. I found a new thread kit (J39345 on E-Bay for about 400.00) The kent Moore price is about 1800.00 for the tool. These are you options. Sorry I wish I could have more help. I've only done one job with Helicoil and it was back in less than 3 months. In the mean time GM come out with the special Time-serts and tool.
if you replaced with new parts it sounds like the synchronizer is not is sync and needs to be set correctly.there is a tool to make sure the system is set correctly that you may be able to rent from a tool rental place.
go to a car parts store or a tool rental place and rent a puller, often times the place where you buy the new one will pull it off the old one and put it on the new for you.
Rear hubs? according to book, need a special tool to pull them... according to a loal shop, bang on it til it releases... you will need to replace it anyways.... might look for a rental place that rents the tool.
You will have to have a special tool made by Kent Moore to remove the connectors. The number of the tool is J-43181. If you do a GOOGLE search, you will see the tool you need. Regards.
I have a 1995 Geo Tracker 4WD with the same exact problem,However I did some research . You will need to go to the Kent Moore Website which makes specialty tools and look up Wheel bearing socket "J-37763" I saw the picture of it and it looks like there are 4 small rounded teeth/tabs. Unfortunately get ready to spend some money - cost is about $70.00 not including shipping/handling
I hope that this Info. helps - Jim H.
