Awesome tool, worked as I expected.

Worked like a charm.

I used this to remove the transmission cooler lines on a Super Duty, it got the job done nicely. My set of regular disconnect tools wouldn't fit, you definitely need this type of tool for Ford's. I did notice that the anodizing was scraped off on the very front part that goes into the fitting and it's also a bit rough, indicating some wear and slight deformation of the metal. I don't think these would stand up to heavy use but for weekend warriors or occasional pro use this gets the job done. If I were using it heavily I'd pony up for a more expensive set, likely off a tool truck, so that I could get them replaced under warranty if they wore out.

Use 3/8'' size for 2003 - 2010 Ford V8 Explorer, 2004 and later Ford F150 and Cadillac CS. Use 1/2'' size for Ford Super Duty Trucks, F250, F350 and F450. I purchased a quick disconnect master set from Astro Pneumatic a while back and thought I had a pretty full arsenal of options for line removal. This was not included in that kit, and NONE of my 4 local automotive part stores had it in stock. Why do you need it? Ford and some Cadillac vehicles have a different style line going into the radiator than most other makers (at the time of this review). I can't speak for Cadillac, but some Ford cooler lines have a plastic safety clip that secures a flange on the line to the quick connect fitting on the radiator. THIS IS WHY YOU NEED THIS TOOL. That flange is very close to the fitting. Look closely at the tool and you'll see the stair stepped design. This is key to getting the tool closed around the line without interfering with that flange in the cooler line. I tried every other tool I had. This worked in seconds. It is strong, smooth to operate, and it's just the right size. It will last as long as I'm a mechanic. If your service manual calls for a Ford 307-441 tool, this is it.

Used the 1/2" and it worked great. Slid on one line fine. Pushed it in. Followed advice online to push the line in and then work it out. At first it didn't seem like it was working but constant tug and slight wiggling and the line slowly made it's way out. The second line seemed initially more difficult because the tool wouldn't fit by a miniscule fraction. I tugged on the line enough to get the tool to fit and it then came off as well as the first.

Worked great when I needed to replace the transmission cooler lines on my 2010 Ford Fusion. My car is the 2.5 naturally aspirated 4 Cylinder car with a 6 speed transmission.

Not too flimsy,but kinda. The concept is great, spot on actually. My situation has rust and corrosion in that area(salt/snow) perhaps in the nicer regions they slide right in as some depicted did. Not in my case. Luckily I could remove the coupler from my truck, and line as one, and remove it on the bench. Even vertical in a vise was a bear. My spring ring inside the coupler were squagged a bit too,so not a perfect scenario for the test. To the designers of the tool, Perhaps make the step down collar slightly longer , maybe a full 1/8 would work better. But slightly shorten the big side to keep the tool in the parameters of the line tolerances. That way it still fits lengthwise in that space, but also the step collar has more meat to get around the line deeper into the coupler. Seeing it's a scissor,one side sits deeper that the shorter side, so it's offset not going in equally on both halves. Fwiw, Still the best tool I've seen for this specific application , but like most things, it could be a tad bit better with very little effort in design. Just so it works better for most applications, not just perfect scenarios.

Fonctionne très bien pour tuyau de refroidissement de la transmission ford escape 2010.

Till now it doesn't work with any car

I got this for a 2008 Ford F-350 transmissions filter lines. To change the filter. It worked in the end. For first timers: you attach it around your pipe and firmly push the narrow part into the pipe fitting. It forces a circular split ring off the pipe and into a recess within the fitting. The pipe will pull out with your other hand. Keep firm pressure against the tool to hold that split ring still in the fitting as the pipe slides out. There’s a raised bump on the the pipe inside the fitting, which is held in by the split ring. You must get that ring off the pipe and into the recess. Do not twist hard. It will break. Firm and direct inwards. Use WD40 first and during to blast all the grit out. That split ring needs room to move into its recess in the fitting. It’s full of grit.

Buen producto y eficiente
