I have one of the locking tools the chap was spamming.

Its cheaper than the landrover part, and it does the job, but the welding is shocking on it. Proper sausage of mig, with so little penetration that it looks like you could knock it off with a chipping hammer.

I mean it does the job, but at 60 quid or whatever he is charging, he should maybe go on a welding course.

Irritatingly the week after i bought it, a landrover one came up on ebay 2nd hand.

I have done 300tdis without the tool, but it does make the job a lot easier, and less random.

The welding, on the ones @neilly put us on to, is spot on. The tool is nearly half the price of his anorl

I tried to look back through the thread, but could not find neillys one.
The tool that i have was far too much money for what it is, so, if there is a cheaper, better one, certainly people should buy that!

I mean mine does the job, but it wasnt a purchase that made me feel good.
