Was marked up “classic mini radius arm tool”

Can anyone confirm that?

Also does it have any worth?

Thanks

That looks like an expanding reamer been set up to do the job. Whats it worth, probably not a huge amount.

I bought a Metro and mini one combined from my lad who bought them off a chap down where he lives.

Nice bit of kit and i hate to think how much it costs. The whole thing thing plus a massive box of bits including pins, bearings clamps etc cost me £90.

Looks like a very nice set!

I got mine for £10 and it included a slim ball joint spanner a flywheel puller and a cone compressor
Plus a few other bits so didn’t do bad!

Little resurrection here...  this tool is the Liquid Levers Kit for repairing Metro rear radius arms, it comes with sleeves to machine the arm "bores" oversize to "clean" them up and thus fit a sleeve and then fit a standard bearing in both sides.

 

The Mini equivalent is an 18G588 and the short sleeve is an 18G588B they came in 2 sizes for early and later clearances.

 

New 18G588 & B's will soon be available again.
