Should also do a strut nut wrench.

That would also be a great seller.

Yep, it's on Doug's to-do list. I'm waiting until those are also ready so he can ship both at the same time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Nope, apparently he anticipated a juvenile response from you and provided the following instructions:

1. Grasp the tie rod wrench in one hand, the strut tool in the other hand.

2. Place Elliot's head between the two tools and smash them together with as much force as you can muster.

3. Continue with #2, until the nut can be effectively removed by hand.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) The key here being, "as much force as you can muster". I'm not too worried. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Doug, My wrench arrived yesterday. Thanks! And thanks for putting together this group buy.

I plan to paint the wrench and various other "special shop tools" that I have acquired orange to match the engine lift plate from Chris at Tangerine.

How about a ball joint wrench or socket? That calls for a special Porsche tool. I used a special tool, also known as a pipe wrench, to replace mine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
