I'm pretty sure they are different in some ways... someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
Nice set to own if they are right for your car. Title: Re: New set of Fulvia Running gear tools for sale Post by: Richard Fridd on 18 January, 2012, 08:55:07 PM S1 and s2 nuts are indeed different.a very nice set of tools to have at ones disposal

S1 fulvias are six spigot, S2 three i think. These look like both S1 and S2, I can check at the weekend. But I would check with Omicron first as I got my tools from them and I didn't pay anything like that much. I didn't buy the fancy hub puller, a standard one from machine mart of the correct size will do.

There was at least one intermediate variation for an early S2 rear hub nut*, the later (common) type being the stronger on re-use. I remember the massively sturdy drum-type hub puller that Harry had was a necessity sometimes if the bearing housing had overheated/corroded/distorted (invariably the front) but it was unusual. Harry's friend Ken used to knock them up for customers at very reasonable prices back then.
*and the tool required subtly different.

Can understand the need for the hub tool as Omicron had one devil of a job getting my nearside front bearing out even with a lot of heat applied. no idea why the link won't work for you ???

Can anybody tell me if a "tool register" exists and can I access it via the Forum. Regards Tim |
