ARCHIVE Wits' End Stud Tool Kit

[NLXTACY]

I've always kept one of these in my rig.

The bearing does eventually wear out though (faster if someone over tourques it)

Good to know there is other options out there.

Have you actually tried it? If it’s the same one I have then it’s too wide.

Actually I've never tried it in my cruiser..... never had one break.

Used it a few times on some other vehicles. Including 5 on my ls430 over the weekend.... when it finally gave up the ghost thanks to my wife's "help" lol

I have it. Doesn’t work on rear studs

Just add a third hole for 100-200 studs then it will be a complete LC tool, multiple people here own both 80 or older AND 100 or newer.

I like it, a more refined, accurate way of replacing a stud on the trail, if accuracy counts....

I’m in when you are ready to ship.

Unfortunately it can't work that way. To accommodate other LCs it would mean adding two additional holes and doubling its size which then makes it useless to perform its function. Unfortunately it needs to be two separate tools.

what's wrong with the tool being twice as long or more of a square? Also why do the 100 and 200 need 2 more holes? different stud size?

No and yes.

why not .? could share more .?

Already discussed at the beginning. It’s too wide. Won’t fit because the stud is too close to the wall.

Well shoot. It seemed so few were interested so I shelved it. But maybe I could do ten or so

 

[NookShneer]

I like the idea just saying.

Put me down for one. I had the scary highway wheel loss a couple months ago, and I still need to replace the studs. No press at home, so this looks like the best alternative.

I would buy one if it's not too expensive.
