Smile Cool Ebay Tool find

I was on ebay this past weekend for the first time in a couple of months searching F-100 parts. I came across a FOMOCO kingpin bushing installer, and FOMOCO bushing reamer with part #s matching up to my shop manual. These are the correct tools used by a Ford dealership service department that recently closed down. Looks like they are good for 53-61 100's and 250's. I thought this was a great find since i'm in the process of rebuilding my stock front end. Although my winning bid totaled about twice what I would have paid a machine shop to do the job, I felt they were a worthy purchase. Plus they come with the original carboard tube container.

That's a great find. Now you just need to find someone needing bushings pressed and reamed to make some of your money back!
