Wheel removal tool.....

[CliffBeer]

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can purchase a reasonably priced wheel removal tool for the tri-wing spinners on my replica Halibrands? I know a lead hammer isn't too bad but I'd rather use a cushioined type of socket or something similar in case my aim isn't too good.

Thanks!

A couple of years back J6 posted pictures of the tool he uses
A search may find it - if not I'll rack the grey matter later and see what I can remember

I think it's on MKIV J6 Lola T70 restoration thread from (fading) memory.

I think there are two types. One is probably best described as a rotary impact device and the other is a large aluminium (aluminum?) socket specially for spinners. John Wisher knows of both types and cast one of the sockets for my car. His email is [email protected].
