Title: Special spanner for mainshaft nut - overdrive fitting
Post by: MisterC on September 26, 2005, 23:13:44

Does anyone in the Newport Pagnell/Milton Keynes area have special spanner 600300 I could borrow?  I need it to remove/refit the castellated mainshaft nut when I (attempt) to fit my overdrive.  I haven't got any serious power tools or welding kit, so I can't fabricate one myself.  Or does anyone know of a tip to get it off without this scarlet pimpernel of land rover tools?  Thanks in advance.

Managed it with a borrowed home made tool (scaffold pipe with nails welded in, worked really well actually).  A few well aimed drift/hammer blows were also employed!
