I'm pretty sure these will work to do the job. They sizes TS10 TS15 TS20 TS25 TS27 TS30 and TS40, $23.95 for the lot.
Burson part no. 70930 |
they don't include the t-50 bit though... which is what you need to get the wheel off! |

surely some other workshops around OZ have these tools.
put your name down for people on FM to come and use them. |
I rang 4 Ford dealers before I could get this tool its made buy a engineering company in Waverly Vic. They some how have a problem selling you the torx bit. Might think you want to flog air bags for a living.

This is a 5 point set ie TS- The T-50 you need to remove the wheel is a 6 point Torx Bit. |

The T50 isn't the problem here, you can buy them anywhere. The 5 pointed ones are the problem. |

I went to Repco, Bursons and Alltools in Ferntree Gully but none of the 5 sided T s/bits fitted they had for sale and that was about 6 months ago.
They are a hard torx bit to find as Alltools said if I could supply the bolt head they might be able to find something to fit. The thing is I had to get the bolt out in the first place.
