None of the inexpensive kits will work properly as they all have the same fault: too small of a threaded rod..

That said any of the ones with the bigger plates will likely be a good starting off point.

I bought the kit that harbor freight sells. I got it like 30% off because somebody stripped the bolt trying to remove the likes of an X5 bearing.

I drilled out the holes on the 5 biggest plates to 1" and bought a pair of 1" grade 8 fine pitch bolts for about $6 each off Amazon.

That boosted the capability 23,000# to 62,000# and it'll push the bearing out with no difficulty.

(It takes about 35,000# to remove about 25,009# to install)
