Special Socket Pinion Nut

Gearbox tool for the VW Beetle.
Socket for the pinion clamping nut.

The clamping nut that holds the pinion can only be fastened and loosened with the original VW tool.

At the Volkswagen dealer you could order all specific Volkswagen tools at the time; you needed the order number, which can be found in the workshop manuals. For this specific pinion nut socket this was no different, but what do you do when the specific socket is no longer available?

Fortunately there are always companies that take this up and provide you with a very good reproduction. This pinion nut socket is equal to the original in shape and certainly also in quality.
