Wheel spinner tool wanted

PostPost by: tonyabacus » Fri Dec 29, 2023 8:53 pm

Looking for one of the Sarto tools for removing the spinners, I recall their may have been a couple of people making fairly similar tools, but was some time ago now.

Anyone perhaps sold their car and still has the tool sat on the shelf'
Thanks

rdent.com is now selling the leather covered Elan K/O spinner tool. Sarto turned over the IP to him.

Thanks Baggy but I was looking for the protective leather Sarto tool if anyone has one for sale.
The difficulty with getting the RD tool is the cost nof shipping at present, unless someone is going to the US and could bring one back. This is shown in the Tool Chest section of the RD.com site for those that have never seen one

Purchased one from Mark above and just what I needed. Wanted to say what a nice guy to deal with and would have no concerns as he is a true enthusiast, fair and helpful, so thanks Mark.

For what it's worth, I find a hardwood drift tightens spinners marvelously well. If maybe 14" long or so it gives you a nice place to whack with your mallet without risk to body parts. Just listen for the whack sound to change from whuck whuck whuck to whong and then you're done. John
