Sorry for the ‘Senior Moment’

I have the proper P259 tool. The dimension of this tool is 76.5 mm center-to-center.

Grady, I also had a senior moment on this one! I originally pm'd (pm because my tool is homemade) a dimension of 74.6 mm (74.5mm), but in my "moment" I forgot to take into account the over sized axle bolt hole in my tool! Add another 2.0mm and voila!, we have 76.6mm. That is certainly close enough for government work!

By the way, your point to measure at multiple points is a good one. The factory states that two points 90 degrees apart is sufficient, but I don't think that they could guess that we would be building proper transmissions using used components from multiple units!

Peter: Great thread!
