CVT holder tool?

[Cortez]

Since I've been into my CVT more times then I've changed oil, and I've got tools for that, I'm in need of
a CVT holder tool, but have no idea what will work with the DT's CVT (or the Malossi that's in it right now).

Can anyone do me a "Get this, stoopid." with a direct (ebay?) link?

They are easy to make, do a search. Basically a straight piece of sturdy metal, and then drill a hole and attach another smaller piece with two bolts on the end. One side can pivot. http://battlescooter.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=howto&action=display&thread=2663

I don't have the time, skills or a single tool needed to do this (live in an apartment), and even if I did,
I'd still like to buy a proven product, if possible.

This is the one I use to hold the Variator and the clutch bell:

One way to fix this is to forget about "going into CVT" and just drive it and open it once in 20.000 kms (meaning, once in entire scooter's lifespan .

That's a bit hard when swapping from 15.5 rollers to 14gr sliders then to malossi multivar with 20gr rollers and expecting 23gr sliders next week,
all in 10.000km.

I know you are in Euro somewhere and this may not help.

I went to Harbor Freight, paid $10 for a cheap electric (battery powered)  impact wrench.
It had enough torque to do the job (swapping rollers).  If I get into the clutch I will
probably need additional  tools.

Cheapest battery powered one I found here was around $100, and salesman
said it was crap.

My wife gave me a Craftsman 19.2 volt impact wrench for Christmas last year. It works real good.

One piece of aluminum  1" x 1/4" x 30".

Cut one 6" piece off to use for second fork.

Drill three holes.

Three 5/16" bolts, two of them with smooth shank and threads.
Cut heads off smooth shank bolts and dress with file.

Smooth shank bolts can be adjusted in or out to make up for difference in thickness of the two pieces.

Cost $12-$14 US

Easy to build but takes a little time.

Have seen some on the net made with 1/8" aluminum. IMHO 1/8 is not sturdy enough. I recommend 1/4" thick aluminum.

Good post, Boo.

I tried making one out of some scrap aluminum that I had in the garage.  It was too thin and would not brace well enough.  If I decide to to something with the clutch (grr, grr noise) I will make one like you described.
