    Hi Folks,

    Does anybody know where to get a spinner wrench for the 3-ear spinners you might see on a Borrani wire wheel? I've seen ones that are about 4 feet long, with 3 coated lugs that lock against the spinner ears, but my search is not coming up with any hits.

    Thanks so much,

    Fred Paroutaud

    Thanks UT, very cool stuff!

    But...not exactly what I'm looking for. I've sketched the tool and attached.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Fred

    Fred,

    Take another look at that post. I bought one of the pieces from Mike Kumor, and I think it's exactly what you're looking for. It has a 3/4" drive, so you can use it with a 4' breaker bar, and you'll have exactly what you've sketched. You'll also have a close fit and vinyl coating to pretect the spinner ears.

    Hi Matt,

    Yes, I did see that one, and I agree it's the same function. For some danged reason I'd love to have the one I sketched! :) You'd get more surface area contact with the 3 lugs than you would with the 3 socket edges. But still, it's a pretty neat tool, and the fact that it's available makes it all the more neat.

    Thanks, and if anybody has a clue about the one I sketched I'd still like to track it down.

    Best regards,

    Fred
