Yes they are but try them at 10 and 15 tons first to see how far the splines have gone up to where they were before, its easy to go too far as well. I know some people warm them up and sledge them on but this makes me cringe, you don't know how much or how little pressure you have on and what is happening to the seals? The most common cause of loose sprockets and hubs I came across as a service engineer was not using the proper tools.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
