I would like to recoup some of the US $370 I spent on the tool set for replacing the pivoting bearings.  I am offering it for 1/3 of what I paid, plus shipping.   Let me know if you're interested.   (I'm located in Minnesota, and I suppose shipping to other continents would be impractically expensive.)  

 

To be clear, there are two tools--per DG Service Info #0-1/92 (called out by Technical Note DG-SS-10), the tools are the W-45 puller assembly and the W-46 press tool.

Or you could rent it out for the same amount.
