An installation apparatus for mounting a garnish having at least one attachment element onto a pillar frame structure of a vehicle can include a handle portion and a J-shaped portion located at one end of the handle portion. The J-shaped portion can include a shorter member configured to engage the vehicle from a bottom area of the pillar frame structure to create a hinge point, and a longer member configured to engage the garnish and attachment structure. The garnish can be installed to the pillar frame structure when pivoting the handle of the apparatus about the hinge point downward and towards an interior of the vehicle.

A leaking oil dipstick adapter is repaired by removing a flanged nut from a threaded extension of the dipstick adapter. A gasket and preferably also gasket seal forming material are applied surrounding the threaded extension of the dipstick adapter and adjacent to an exterior side of the wall of the oil pan. A washer is applied adjacent to this gasket. A nut is threaded onto the threaded extension of the dipstick adapter and applies a compression force on the washer, compressing the gasket against the exterior surface of the wall of the oil pan. A tool is preferably used to retain the dipstick adapter and keep it from falling into an interior of the oil pan during the repair.

A variable riser device includes an elongate member having a plurality of steps along a length of the elongate member. Each step is located on a different side of the elongate member. Also, each step includes a top flat surface that juts perpendicularly inward toward the linear straight axis of the elongate member. Each step is spaced linearly apart from each other along the length of the elongate member.

The present invention relates to a tool for expediting the separation of different components of a wheel hub. The tool includes a base and a top that is rotatably connected to the base. The tool may also include a bearing that is connected to the base and to the top, where the bearing enables the rotation of the top relative to the base. A portion of a wheel hub may be located relative to the top, after which the wheel hub and top can be rotated. While this occurs, a heat source can be applied to a portion of the wheel hub to enable even heating. As a result of this heating and related expansion, a first wheel hub piece may be separated from a second wheel hub piece.

An installation tool installs a camshaft to a lower supporting portion. A cylinder head of an internal combustion engine includes the lower supporting portion, a cam holder, and a half-thrust washer. The camshaft is sandwiched between the cam holder and the lower supporting portion via a bearing. The half-thrust washer is inserted into respective annular groove disposed in an outer peripheral surface of the bearing and half annular groove disposed in the cam holder. The installation tool includes a bearing holder that holds the bearing, a head abutting portion abutted against a reference surface of the lower supporting portion with the bearing held, and an opposed concave knock portion into which a knock collar disposed in the cam holder is inserted to adjust a position of the half annular groove with respect to the half-thrust washer.

A lug nut loosening assembly includes a coupler that has a well therein for insertably receiving a free end of a lug wrench. The coupler has an axle aperture therein and an axle is insertable through the axle aperture. A pair of wheels is each of the wheels is positionable on the axle when the axle is inserted through the axle aperture wherein each of the wheels is configured to rest on a support surface upon which the vehicle is parked. each of the wheels rolling along the support surface when the vehicle is rolled rearwardly and when the lug wrench is positioned on the lug nut and is inserted into the sleeve wherein the pair of wheels is configured to transfer the rearward motion of the vehicle into counter-clockwise rotation of the lug wrench for breaking free the lug nut.

The present invention provides a mounting device for a lockup mechanism between a transmission and a shift cable, which comprises a pliers body, wherein an upper end of the pliers body is arranged with a positioning member used for positioning a lockup piece, an upper end of the positioning member is provided with a barb portion fitting with the lockup piece, a push rod movable along the lengthwise direction of the pliers body is arranged at the bottom side of the positioning member, a handle is rotatably mounted on the lateral portion of the pliers body, the handle is connected to the push rod by means of a connecting element, and the handle can be rotated about the pliers body to cause the push rod to perform extending and retracting movements along the lengthwise direction of the pliers body.
