7.3l injector cup

I am planning to do my injector o-rings and cups soon. I was planning to make my own tool for the cup removal and install.

Does anyone have an old injector cup lying around (good or bad) that they'd be willing to throw in an envelope to me on my dime? I was going to use one to make the install tool before I tear the truck down.

Unless of course someone has a better idea? Thanks

Well now that you mention it, maybe you could just buy the cups and o-rings from someone who will loan or rent you a removal tool for cheap.

Or if you really want to build your own, be sure and share pics with us. We really like pics. Here's what everyone used to use before we had access to the removal tools that seem to be everywhere now.
Webshots Rides offers thousands of the best car wallpapers.

And here's a little info on the rotunda removal tool with a few pics and measurements. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...cup-tools.html

I am a firm believer in making your own tools or parts. I have seen people use taps and brass drifts to install cups. If it were me, I would buy the cups from Riffraff Diesel and rent his tool for $25. Proven tool and you can see how it works. May give you better ideas to your own version too.

Thanks F350 for the info. I will be filing those measurements away.

Wood, I did not realize the tools were available for rent from online retailers. I knew they probably wouldn't be on the local Advance/Zone loan a tool menu.
