Tools the E34 group needs

[93FIM5]

Let's hear what tools the E34 section needs the most. Im willing to build at my own cost any tools the E34 group needs and the tools can be shared free of charge for shipping. Have at it.

[S61Dan]

Rear subframe bushing tools???

[93FIM5]

Ok done.

Rear subframe bushing tools???

I got that one too if needed. Bought it from someone here.

Edit:
I guess RTAB tool? I haven't done that yet but will need to in the future.

[S61Dan]

Ok done.

Oh. Didnt mean to commit to buying one. Just curious.

[XCRN]

I think these are just tools to be made to be circulated among the group. If that is the case here are some of the tools I can think of that would benefit the members here.

M50 Timing Blocks
M50 Gear Sprocket Wrench
ZF Transmission Detent Tools

Well you did.

[Sam Son]

rear subframe tool would be nice

[S61Dan]

Well you did.

Oh noooooooooooo

There's a gun building group that does this. I recommend doing what they do and requiring a deposit. We all mean well, but things happen and stuff will get lost.

I had a fender roller get "lost" on me that way.

S38/M30 crank and flywheel locking tools. Ready to send deposits for those.

A special wrench for the M60 engine mount top bolts would make that job super easy - and what M60 doesn't need engine mounts?

Came to post this. I like Trevor's idea for a M60 motor mount wrench too.

[Hofmeister]

as said already, m50 cam timing tools and rear end bushing tools are a must for a project like this. i know ill be needing them hopefully soon

Are you talking about the big wrench or something different? I have the M30 crank tool if you'd like to borrow it.

I have a crank holder tool. Glad to let others use it, but I loaned it out and haven't gotten it back yet. At least I know who has it. Gimme an address and I'll press him to send it to you.

No was saying I'd let people borrow it.

Yup agree

What's it look like ?

RTAB tool would be tricky unless you have a press.

[TGreene]

What's it look like ?

It would be something like a socket that sits on the nut, with a neck on it that drops down below the engine mount bracket and then does a 90 degree bend with a handle on the end. Make sense? Probably not haha.

The crank tool that holds the pulley so you can get the jesus bolt off? That is what I will end up needing if the front timing chain covers are leaking on the S38, which I think they are.

What about the one that AKG sells or used to sell?

Never used it but our rear trailing arm bushing are metal clad and it took a 10 ton press and a BFH to pop mine and every other set I've done free. I don't see a screw type press working.

Rear subframe bush tool
Rear Diff bushes tool
Crank holder tool
Door handle outer trim release tool (changing outer rubber seals)
Manual flywheel holding tool (clutch changes)
More HP to my M30 tool!

I used the Baum RTAB tool. It worked on 3 of the 4 with ease—then the bolt broke. Now my car pulls to the left!!! I can send it to you if you need a template to "improve" upon.

M60 jesus bolt tool. And definitely a tool for the top motor mount nuts.
