| Needed - 46mm Socket Friends,
Does anyone have a 46mm socket that they are willing to loan? I need to remove the crankshaft pulley nut on my 77 FJ40, and can't find a local source for the socket. (I'd also rather not buy another rarely-used tool.) I've checked with the UC members here in Charleston, but to no avail. Can anyone upstate help?
Keith (aka MtPCruiser)

| Keith I don't have one. Maybe someone will step up. I'll be in Charleston in 2 weeks. If someone steps up maybe I can deliver it. |

| Doesnt your crankshaft nut have those 2 hooked barbs on it so that you can use a bar instead of a socket?

| Thanks to 72Cruiser (Jonathan)! This is one of the great things about cruiser addicts, everyone is just so darned friendly.
Hopefully now I can get the timing cover off and find the source of this knock that's been driving me nuts.
