Very pleased to get this piece of kit. It is beautifully packaged and very worthwhile if you intend on being a long term G owner...

Yes, I know... I am getting the "Athelete's Tongue" out of my mouth, as we speak. I mis-spoke. I just looked up in WIS, and you are correct. Attached is a Photo of the Included Parts. Alan, 3 of the 4 Parts on the "Left" side of the H1's Photo are part of the T-Case Mount Puller set 460 589 00 43 00. I am also full of Guano in the 4th piece on the Left. I mis-spoke on it's use. The Adapter is "Verdichtungsprufer", or "Compression Tester" Adapter (for Diesels, I presume). Anyhoo, sorry about my Incorrect statement about the number of Cross-Compatable items. Either way, it is a REALLY cool set! My German friend claims the actual BOX was specifically designed to be THROWN out of an Aircraft, in a battle scenario, and yet not damage the Tools within.

The case is beautiful. I agree. You could air drop the case and the tools would arrive safe. You have the appreciate the Germans and their attention to detail. Some of the tools are secured in place with wood bracing and wingnuts. The handles are spring loaded. First class. If the T-Case mounts on the W463 are only metric sockets and a ratchet, that makes my life easier. If only 4 or 5 parts are not cross compatible for my 463s, maybe I will need a MilSurp W460/W461 Diesel one day  | |
