OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Flywheel and Brake Drum Torque Tool Kit, 36mm Gland Nut and Axle Nuts
Flywheel and Brake Drum Torque Tool Kit, 36mm Gland Nut and Axle Nuts
Second picture shows a typical application to loosen and tighten axle nuts with a puny ratchet!
 
Flywheel and Brake Drum Torque Tool Kit, 36mm Gland Nut and Axle Nuts is used to tighten and loosen the flywheel gland nut, and 36mm Axle Nuts at the brake drum! This was initially introduced under the "Torque-meister" brand name years ago. Mechanical advantage (leverage) makes seemingly impossibly tight nuts come off WITH EASE! Accurate too! This is a great tool to have around the garage for the do-it-yourselfer. This tool eliminates the need for an assistant when tightening or loosening rear axle nuts, or the flywheel gland nut. If you've ever used this, you realize it's a MUST in the garage of the Vee-Dubber!

This tool comes with 2 pinion gears, for both 6V/180mm flywheels, AND 12V/200mm flywheels!

The leverage on this tool is amazing. You'll be able to use a 3/8" ratchet and torque wrench, to loosen or tighten even the most stubborn axle nuts or gland nuts!

Price: $109.95

5 of 5 A+++++ April 3, 2016
Reviewer: Gregory Ribeiro from Tustin, CA United States  
Cant say enough on what a God send this tool is.

   I've spent years using cheater bars that break ratchets and rigging angle irons trying to hold steady my fly wheel and brake drums from turning while trying to achieve the VW obscene torque requirements. Even then it was a guessing game on the torque applied. No more with this tool! On a torque wrench using this tool is 25 ft lbs = 230 at the nut/bolt. 30ft lbs= 270 at the nut /bolt.

I've been using this tool for over 10 plus years now and never looked back.

A must for anyone who works on their own VW!

5 of 5 Awesome tool June 24, 2012
Reviewer: Victor Amram from Arlington, VA United States  
One of the most useful tools I've ever owned.  Makes removing and reinstalling the rear drums as easy as changing a tire.
