3/8 reamer for which A7 uses?
#1
I read, I wrote down... I bought one secondhand on ebay.
Which now sits in a packet. 
And now I can't remember what it is for!
Can anyone enlighten me please and it might prompt memory of the rest of the job...

The first thing you will use it on is fitting NEW front shackle bushes.

A 3/8th Inch reamer also does the track rod end bushes.

I don't know about earlier engines, but the RP fan pulley bush is 1/2".

YAY! Genius people! That's why I bought it!! Track rod ends and brake cams. I now have to put a little bit of paper into 1 of the boxes (brakes) and the front axle box can have the tool...

Does anyone else have parts boxes where there are also notes? I have another one, made today, for fuel line stuff.. and it now has a note with "big gauge copper stuff hanging in ceiling on peg"...

I make odd useful tools - like a bar with holes in it to act as a puller

A year or two later I make another

A year or two later I find the original one

So I label them now with a marker pen

And sometimes take a photo of the set up

But - I have not yet evolved a filing system for the photos.
