Timing chain crimping tool

Does anyone have available for rent or know where I could rent a crimping tool to change my timing chain on my 82 300D. Hate to spend $250 for the tool and only use it once in a blue moon. Thanks

If they arent available, try your local parts houses. If they dont, try your local motorcycle shops.

There might be a Member close to your area that has one they could loan.

Thanks vstech. I had seen in the forum people talking about the rental program but until becoming a member hadn't been able to find any info on it. I will check with the two people listed and see if I can get it. Got a estimate of $1600 for a timing chaining replacement from a local benz shop. And they wouldn't rent me the tool. Thanks for the info.

You're welcome!
glad to help.
if you cannot rent one, and you end up buying one, you can put yours in the program, and make some coin renting it to members in need.
