Quick, safe, one-man gearbox removal with this new transmission support arm from Laser Tools
Monday 03 April 2023
Technicians: Change the way your remove transmissions for ever! Developed by a time-served mechanic for Laser Tools — when combined with a traditional transmission jack this patented Laser transmission support arm (part number 8579), simplifies gearbox removal and fitting by supporting the gearbox from above. The specially-shaped arm goes up the side of the gearbox and gives an attachment point to hang the support-strap and chains supplied.
Because the gearbox is hanging from the support it is much easier to manoeuvre both in and out of position. The Laser transmission support arm turns a transmission jack from an underneath support, into a much more stable over-the-top support, while still maintaining the ability to work from underneath.
With a 200kg safe working load, it provides dramatic time reductions in the removal and replacement of the gearboxes. Significantly improves stability requiring only one person and hands-free operation. Works well with the Laser Tools 5750 engine support and 4842 support beam.
Universal applications, can be used in tight engine bays and transmission tunnels, including: Citroën Berlingo Van, Fiat 500, Ford Fiesta, Focus, KA and Kuga, MINI, Honda Civic, Honda CRV, Hyundai I32, Land Rover Defender, Nissan Navara (with transfer), Peugeot 207 & 208, Renault Trafic, Renault Captur, Vauxhall Vivaro, Volvo XC90, VW Touran, VW Tiguan, and VW Golf.
The Laser transmission support arm is available now from your Laser Tools stockist.
