I just made a tool to remove and reinstall the input shaft bearing retaining nut on a SM-318 transmission. I didn’t have any 1/8” plate wide enough, so I welded 2 pieces of 1/8 by 1-1/2“ flat bar together. I have a milling attachment for my lathe and used it to cut the jaws of the wrench. It worked perfectly!
