since we recently had the thread about the CV joint lock ring pliers i
decided to make a stop by my local sears today.  so for the archives:

Sears item #00947386000 Mfr. model #47386
(also came up under the search by using 947386 as the item #)

this is the tool that you can use to get the lock ring that holds the CV
joint on the axle on and off with.  that is unless you like to watch it
fly across the room and chase after it :).
