Dimensions/Plans for E4OD special tools...

Pretty much just what the title says, wondering if anyone has seen plans or dimensions for the E4OD special tools like the clutch spring fixture tool and the geartrain holder? Thanks for any help.

Special tools list

I've been thinking about rebuilding my own E4OD, but have seen some outrageous prices on some of the "special" tools that seem to be required.

My question is, what are the minimum amount of tools that would be needed?
Any input would surely be appreciated here too! I've seen a couple of the writeups that some people have done...they showed/mentioned a few special tools, but not what they are. Any insight here?

Anyone have any for sale?

Have you seen this writeup?

http://www.FTEs diesel forums.com/pr...e4od/index.htm

It shows the slide hammer adapter for the pump, the geartrain holder, clutch spring fixture and compressor. Slide hammer adapter and compressor look pretty straight forward. Clutch spring fixture and geartrain holder look super easy to fabricate given dimensions. Some judicious ebay searching will show the factory tools but they've been going pretty expensive...
