    I have a nice OTC hydraulic kit $2100 and various plates for different liners/motors another $800 all together pretty heavy to ship. A fair price would make it considerable...thanks.

    While I appreciate the offer, it is a little more than i want to spend for one motor.

    I can confidently instruct someone in manufacturing a home-made liner puller but these "pieces" would not be just lying around the house and remember, if your pulling the liner your going to have to press it also, 2 different plates, 2 different angles of attack. A 4x4 and a dead blow might work once....I bought mine because I busted the fire ring. Don't listen to somebody who works on their daddy's buick....ha just kidding...I own one come to think of it (my wife's).

    As NightWind stated, ask a local shop about borrowing one. They get a little more open to the idea when you purchase parts from them as well.

    Offer to buy the shop pizza or subs for lunch. Fair trade for a tool rental if you plan to be a one time user. Probably about as free as you can get.
