If necessary, use a wooden block on the edge of your rim to pry against if extra "pull" is necessary. Oh yeah.... don't forget to use soapy water....or just liquid soap, for lubrication when installing a rubber valve stem.I used this to pull out my old valve stems after I broke the tire down and took the TPMS sensors off and then pull in the new valve stems. The batteries on the old TPMS sensors only last 10-12 years and I was due. I got a cost estimate of $500 to replace them. This tool allowed me to do the job myself. It's well made and durable. The package says Made in USA.So easy to use - thread the tool onto the valve stem and pull the stem into place. Used a small block of wood as leverage and it seated perfectly. Good quality product and a great addition to the toolbox.Great productEasy to use. Should last for years.Does what it's supposed to do, wish pivot was better quality.Really good deal for the money.Although the description said Made in China, my tool packaging clearly said Made In The USA. Nice weight to it.Tool worked exactly as advertised. Good value for the money.well made tool, should last.Très bien fait et semble très solide. Très utile pour retenir ou remplacer une valveMade in USA , well made high qualityWorks great
