S54 Camshaft locking tool dimensions

Post by Mangozac » Fri Mar 17, 2017 4:46 am

I'm wondering if somebody with an S54 camshaft locking tool can do me a favour and provide some metric measurements, as per the following diagram? You just need to report the measurement for each of the letters.

Yes, I know they're not that expensive and yes I can afford to buy one. I just enjoy doing car related jobs and that includes constructing special tools. Why have the skills and equipment necessary to fabricate things if you're not gonna use them?

Thanks in advance!

That's an awesome offer but yeah unfortunately the distance is a bit of an issue! If nobody else here is able to help I have some other channels I can try ;)

Sorry to hijack this thread but if anyone's thinking of selling one along with a crank locking pin, I'd be interested in buying.

I can sympathise with that ;)

If you ever find yourself ordering other bits from ECS in the US you can grab one from them for the cheapest price I've seen. It's just shipping that's the killer (at least to Australia)!
