That will make the job of removing the gearbox so much easier, no more broken brown fingers worries, would you rent it out ?

..I used the genuine Sinclair gearbox puller on a set of "chocolate fingers" yesterday - the fingers just shattered

Did you win the one on ebay karl? Or did you acquire one

PLOD11 · 25, September, 2011 - 11:32:17

You should have used the Chas version, and it would have been fine

Karl · 25, September, 2011 - 12:04:18

...nah, the chocolate fingers would have shattered no matter what tool was used

, parts of the fingers were dropping off into the motor mount before I even started dismantling the c5 for restoration.

The genuine tools are fab, especially like the way you can get at the headstock and steering bearings without having to remove the bodyshell.
