RE: pinion nut tool

[jason.glover@domain.elided]

I made a pinion nut tool myself by buying a large 12 point socket (can't remember 
what size). I then took the dremel with the small cut-off wheel and notched out 
every other "point" until six were left standing. I had to grind the remaining 
points to be a little thinner in order to fit, but it seems to grab pretty good. 
Note however that I have yet to actually break the nut loose since I can't get 
the car high enough to get a long enough wrench on it. I think it will work, and 
it was about $5 bucks and a half hour with a dremel. Beats $40 bucks. If I had a 
mill I'd make them and sell them to all of you for an even $20. What a deal!
