The cups supplied are fine for TJ/XJ.
Mate borrowed it and made a JK cup.
Press is strong.
First set of BJ's , been in for 240,000 km.
Had it cranked up with a metre long pipe and bashing the hell out of it with a hammer.
Hit it that hard the hammer handle snapped.
Had to make do with the back of a tomahawk after that.
Its still going strong

the ball joints will strip the thread right out of that small gauge tool without even budging, which will be inconvenient for you, with your junk hanging out, and no tool to complete the task
