It's the correct thickness but not being used to this sort of work if you allow the wrench to slip slightly, as I did, the metal circlip pops off and there is no way to put it back without a special tool. Result is the rubber sleeve will no longer keep out water....
The original design is far superior imho and I will definitely go for that style when I replace these again.

I'm looking at the set of pullers you linked to, were they the correct fit and easy to use?
