Does anyone know where I can get a shaft wrench for my HSD spindle? I can't seem to find any with online searches. I guess if I can't find one I could grind down a standard wrench.

I did a web search for 27 mm wrench and found a lot on Amazon, eBay, and the good old place Sears.

Plenty of standard wrenchs out there.....problem is they are 3/8 or more in thickness. The wrench flats in the HSD spindle are only about .250 wide. I can certainly grind down the thickness of a standard wrench and make it work but I was hoping to find a replacement HSD wrench.

I hate to ask but I just have to. What happened to the original?

I guess I was hoping for a "forgot to take it off and it shot out the window and stuck into my neighbor's back. The police won't give it back as it's evidence."

John, that's a much better excuse maybe I should use that instead.

Thanks Again All!
