I am on the hunt for two of the tools to complete my tool board.

Slide hammer and bush remover.

Does anyone have them who could post a picture so I can see what I am chasing.

Slide hammer is generic, they all work the same, only the thread on the end varies. Go check out Repco or Supercrap...

It really needs to be the right one to fit on the board. I will make one if I can not locate an original.

Its the bush puller which my be the challenge.

Its taken me 20 years to collect these ones. Its the hunting thats fun.

I'll look through the BMC service tool books to see if I can find what you are after.

In the meantime, a simple Google search on sykes 378h slide hammer shows the following. Even though the number is different I'd reckon one of these would suit.

Googling bush remover brings up this:
