Yes, someone on the list made them and made them available here. The
price was far less than I
thought the labor involved to make it was worth. So I purchased one
and it is in my Hope Chest
as in, " I hope someday I find a use for this.".
Along a similar vein the crankshaft nut comes up quite often. There are
a few metric and US or inch
sizes that will work because they will grip enough and allow it to be
turned but the correct size is a
1W.( 1 inch Whitworth) Being the tool freak I am I have one of these
also.
I'm in NJ and would loan them out locally but I'm not going to get
involved in a lot of shipping hassles.

A four sided box socket works. Maybe someone that bought one off the list
a few years ago could loan you theirs. Where art thou?

Subject: [Healeys] Socket Size
I am pretty sure that the Large Axle Nut (left and right thread) on a
Healey
is 2 3/16, but I dont think a regular 6pt. Socket will work; does anyone
know the number of points the socket needs to be for proper engagement
with the nut?
Thanks- Doug
