I’m just wondering what a Coxhead flywheel puller, and Primary gear seal installer set would be worth these days. (Sorry I'm not selling it, I just picked it up today)Image

man, that flywheel puller would be sweet. Nev Purdue in Ballarat once told me that he had one that type and loaned it to another workshop to pull a flywheel. Next time he went to use it the grease came oozing out of a crack, they'd hit it with a hammer and f*cked it

I’d say PeterB is pretty close to the money.

I have seen a Coxhead puller sell for $700. Yes, they are that good.

WOW! Thanks guys, I was thinking around the $200-$300 mark.
Already have the first job lined up for it next weekend.

The two sets of studs are for the two types of clutch, the early coil spring type and the usual diaphragm type.
On the early coil spring ones the studs are also used as a spring compressor with the domed nuts facing the other way.

& i wouldn`t use the center-plug to push on,,, we use the flywheel bolt (without the key-washer fitted)
because the flywheels can come flying off, hit you in the guts, then land on your toes,,, i`ve seen a flywheel shoot across the workshop years ago :-)
