Nope. And there really isnt.  Does it have notches for punches like a 16 has?

yeah, this guy.

looks good, I think last I looked it was about $150

I don't think there's good clearance on this carrier for punches or a two jaw.

and if I ever have to pull the bearings off the ARB there definitely won't be on the air side - but that's hopefully years and years down the road

$370

i think they rent them out for something almost reasonable.

That looks like the one he has, and he loves it. He is able to re-use a lot of bearings.

Just tossin more bills at this thing

Are the bearings $250 a piece or something on this apparently gold-cladded axle? Maybe it's worth it to buy the puller hahaha

$60 retail from RockAuto for the carrier bearings (that have 3000 miles on them in this case).
National 3920 (race) & 3984 (bearing)

that's not a tool that pays for itself in one use. Have you pulled carrier bearings before? It's often a serious pain in the ass even when you're not planning to reuse them. The quick way is cut the cage, nick the race without nicking the case, and then crack it with a cold chisel, because usually a two jaw puller doesn't want to cooperate at all.
