    LR special Tool - massive long shot!

    I know this is a huge longshot and very cheeky, but would anyone have LR special tool LRT-37-023 that they would lend me?

    Its the one for holding the 5th gear on the layshaft so I can do the nut up.

    It can be seen about 1/2 way down the page on this link:

    Dingocroft Gearbox and Transfer Box Tools

    I could buy it from the UK, and if I have too I will but I was wondering if anyone had one in Australia that I could borrow / rent / hire?

    Would happily pay for Express post insured both ways if they did + any hire costs?

    Its the only LR tool I have needed in the entire box rebuild!

    Cheers
    Pete

    if your doing it on an assembled box remove the detent and interlock springs and select 4th and 2nd at the same time.

    Pete,

    Just use a reasonably thick wad of clean rag between the main and layshaft gear teeth to supply a resistance, and tighten away...

    , Not my idea Pete, was taught that many years ago now, and Paul, who works with me now, also knew about/ used this method for ages.

    (But if you're offering, a 2009 limited release Grant Burge Grenache Shiraz & Mourvedre from the Barossa is a nice drop....)
