I'm after a few tools but the usual suspects don't seem to sell them.

Main thing I need is a CV Boot clamp tool. I know Sealey make a few of these but I've had a look of the usual sites of screwfix machine mart etc etc but nobody sells them!

Does anybody know of a decent place I can get these from online (as the tool shops around here only seem to specialise in cheapo items) so I can finally get around to replacing my CV joint?

Cheers

That's the one, and can't argue for £15!

Cheers Jim.

That sounds like a pretty good endorsement to me :D

Shame they don't seem to sell the other bits I need. Picking up the new hub bolts on saturday so will have to get the tool for that when I find out what size it is I need.

Colt, I don't think this new marketing technique for your mechanic skills is working too well ;)

I thought that was what's known as a "Brummie Screwdriver" but I could be wrong :D
