Efficient Locking Device for Engine Work

This is a solid locking tool that's perfect for automotive engine work. The adjustable design and primary locking feature make it easy to use and reliable. The only downside is that it may not be suitable for larger engine parts, but for most applications, it's perfect. Highly recommended for any mechanic or DIY enthusiast.

Pros
  • Easy to use and adjust.
Cons
  • Requires manual adjustments to fit different sized objects, which can be inconvenient and time-consuming.

Not "suitable for most applications "

Primary latch not working. Save money and buy a Teflon step block. This piece is too short to bind the twin cam clutch and wear out sprockets in the primary housing.

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Poor instructions

This tool is quite well built but I bought it to use on my Buell XB12r 07 and it didn't fit. Even the smallest was still too long. I have used step type polymer chain stops with great success.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Expandable
