Looking for someone to do pulley swap
Permalink  

I want to upgrade to an Alta Ver. 20 pulley from my stock one but I really dont want to mess with it or buy the 160$ tool to remove it. Anyone know of any local (ish) mini owners who know how to do the swap and will do it for a reasonable fee?  Thanks in advance! (and no Venno I dont want to drive to New Hampshire LOL)

I know that Endicott isn't local but we have a garage here that has done two pulley upgrades... and I believe one of our TIERMIN member has the tool.  I can ask about the costs if your interested.

looks like its about $90 more in Endicott and about 3-4 hours. I imagine the pulley party guys know what they are doing if they can do it in an hour. If I could get the pulley here quicker I would certainly have went to the pulley party.

I know theres a MINI parts site that offers free pulley puller rental if you purchase the pulley from them...the site passes my mind....but if so I could help you out since I'll be watching them closely
