I see why you chose not to go that route. I was lucky because there are a number of MB only shops around that had the tool. You might look in the tool rental section on this site or Performance Products also has the tool for rent. I remember watching the guys at the place that I took the parts and the put the press in a vice and then 2 guys pulled on the LONG breaker bar they used to turn the press screw.
