Not looking for a fly press, hydraulic or arbour press after one of these bad boys or something like it. It's a rack and pinion mechanism, I beleive the technical term is a broaching press...? not sure but if you know of an old one kicking around any worskshops or anyone selling one please point them my way :)

You can buy the small 1/2 ton ones from machine mart. If you're doing wishbone bushes etc though I'd go for something 2 ton +

This one is cheaper than most on ebay

http://www.machinema...ton-arbor-press

Still only 1 ton though so not really heavy duty.

This however is the kiddie

http://www.bodyshop-...ew.php?id=19399

Good price but it's floor standing so will take up a decent bit of room.

Nah neither of those are really suitable cheers for the suggestions though guys. To be honest it's looking like I'll end up with a crappy little arbour press but this is the one I really want, this guys wants MENTAL money for it though.....

Why not a hydraulic one Jimmy? Surely much easier to use and not usually made of cast iron.
