Ok guys I saw it a while ago so I know it is available in the US on one of the websites. Anyhow it is a flywheel locking tool, bolts onto the rear housing and locks the flywheel for the eccentric shaft nut removal. Since most of you prefer to use bars, 2x4'sa or what have you, I prefer to use the right tool for the job. If you do not know what I am talking about, please do not reply. Dragon has one in his shop and it is the best thing since sliced bread. It makes pulling the flywheel a one man job when bolted on the engine. Judge Ito may have one, I know Dragon ordered his from the Mazda dealer and it was a little spendy. So if you know of a supplier or a website I really would appreciate the help
Thanks
Thanks

Now to be helpful:
You can buy a 1/2" drive socket that fits the nut. Mazdadrifter got one from Sears. You just use an impact wrench to take it off. A lot less hassle than the 2x4 method.
