Morning all,

Can anyone recommend set of Circlip pliars to use rebuilding the CAT diffs? Picked up a set from maplins but unfortunately they aren't small enough!

Thanks

Dan

i'd recommend some Knipex circlip pliers - 0.9mm diameter tips (part number 48 11 J0) - see :

good quality and the correct tip diameter. i ground down the tips on my previous pair of pliers and they promptly snapped off :cry:....
