ZF plug tool
9/15/08
Thanks to the generosity of Chuck Melton I do now carry a 17mm plug in my toolbox.
Years ago my neighbor helped me unplug the ZF by getting a 11/16 bolt from his supply welded a nut to it and ground the head slightly to the 17mm size. I later added a 17mm bolt with a double nut configuration to make a total of 3 tools for my boxes. One remains home, two travel with the Pantera where one bolt setup is ready as a “give-away” as needed.
So, for those with mm inventory, look for a 17mm bolt. American types, hunt down a 11/16 bolt and then file the head to fit.
I prefer Chuck’s socket but both alternatives work fine during the many TPOC tech sessions held here.

From: Asa Jay Laughton <asajay at asajay.com>I purchase one from Chuck some time back. It was much more convenient than trying to find it on my own. I've used it now a couple of times and it's so much nicer to actually -have- the correct tool to do something. (Ask me, I know).
