Does anyone have a Sir Tool p234 rear main seal arbor that they'd be willing to loan, rent, or sell?

Bump.

Anyone have one? If not, has anybody ordered from this company? http://www.shoptoolsshoptools.com/shopexd.asp?id=1138

I have the 9126 rear main seal tool (below):

PM me an address and I'll ship it off to you for the price of shipping. Holler back.....

the tools are "nice" but not really needed if you are careful......

There are no real geniuses, just people with the right tools.

IMO rear main seals are a giant PITA, there are multiple types in the replacement-partsosphere:

So you want to make sure you're using the 'right' RMS. And you want to clean the living bejeebus out of the cavity around the crank before installation. See post #28 in the above thread.

Since the stakes of installing it wrong are kinda high, you want to make sure to do the job right the first time. So yes, you can use the old seal, tap in in carefully with a ball pein hammer, etc. But I need as much idiotproofing as possible, and the 9126 tool made installation to the correct depth a non-issue.
