I got mine at Sears for $26 or so a year ago. The Sears web site has it for $32.99 right now.

I got mine at Tool Town in Tacoma, i think it was $25, but has epic win over anything you've ever seen... Too bad I cant snap a photo of it, cause SOMEONE is still "borrowing" it.

buy one now and you won't regret it when you don't have to go looking for one next time.i bought mine reluctantly and I've used it about 5 times now, and I've loaned it out helping people.

I have access to A Mazda factory Flywheel Wrench and Stopper, Impact gun with Socket, Flywheel removal tool, and A Heavy duty torque wrench that will torque to 300 Ft. Lbs.
If you live in Vancover I would be willing to make the drive, if you would be willing to pay for gas and maybe a little to rent the tools. Let me know if you still need. Robert.
Thanks.

Im hoping to do the swap wed-thur my days off put i think i have to get my hands on a 2 starter and make sure the used clutch i bought is for the fc not fd. i remember the splines lining up but i wanna run the part number.
