Sure I could make something or use circlip pliers as suggested but these must make it easier - if it fits, quite a bit cheaper than camskill and i'm sure a lot cheaper than mitsi.
I've contacted the seller asking for the distance between the pins and the diameter of them, anyone got an old pulley handy that could measure for me so I can make sure?
Why not create a tool like I did on page one? The bits pushed through the socket was just from a screw driver set bit I bought from bunnings for ten bucks!!

Well done making that mate but i'd rather just click a few links to get the tool, have enough on making other stuff at the moment!

True, but I spent less time making the tool (took me literally 2 minutes) than you have talking about it on this thread! :D
