Engine timing set rental anyone?

Category: Drivetrain
Price: $150
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

hello fellow members, im about to prepare myself to dive into rebuilding my 07 JCW Cooper S, but looking around and seeing some pretty steep prices for the timing kits in order to lock the cams/crank. is anyone on the site feeling generous enough to rent me their tool kit? I would of course put a large deposit down for you, and cover shipping both ways. I don't currently see a need to own this set, and thought maybe one of you would be helpful enough to lend me yours. any returned information would be greatly appreciated!


thanks fellas!

What does your rebuild entail? If it's just the top end, you can just have someone step on the brakes while you undo the cam bolt. Then toss a bungee cord through the hood loop and hold the chain up in tension just in case.
