The Blaine Fab Koni tool is in stock again - I cut down a good brand (this batch is Williams) impact socket and TIG weld it to a 23" long length of 1.5" DOM rollbar tubing, and drill a hole on the handle to hang it up.

$55 plus shipping, and CA tax for deliveries in CA.

Alan, I'll probably be in touch shortly. I should add one of those to my collection "for next time....if ever". I'm guessing these have been "tested" and there's not an issue with the socket spreading under load?

I use a good impact socket so has plenty of meat supporting the hex. I sold one to JWL several years ago and assume it's been in service, he hasn't commented. I did loosen the nuts on a new set of Konis (they get the nut on there very very tight) with that one before shipping it.

I did recheck fit on this new one on my car - dropping the snap ring/CO sleeve/spring/bump stop down all the way I was able to get it onto the nut with it on the car - useful to spin the hat around if the adjuster slot ends up in a bad place.

I smooth out the ID of the socket to help avoid nicking the shock shaft hard plating

It is guaranteed for life (mine).
