Any help? Thanks in advance.

I think we have a thread for that, but anyway, I have them but am on the wrong coast. Hopefully someone on the Left Coast can hook you up. Though I'm not sure you need anything more than the one 32mm(?) wrench and a mallet.

BTW, I think I got mine from ebay.

The wp lock tool does help. I would help as I have the tools, but I'm not exactly down the street

What's the part number for this kit? I love stuff like this. So thought-out :)

Eric,

I don't sweat about getting a proper tool that you will never need again. I was doing my fan delete and spent half a day chasing the tool around town, with no success. The truth is, you don't need it. My neighbor has an older 318 and he saw me messing about with my fan in frustration; so he went over to his garage and brought back a big adjustable wrench and a very long flat-head screw driver. It took me 2 minutes to find the right angle to wedge the screw driver against the bolt heads and it came off with ease. It's not on tight and it doesn't have to be. I'm sure you know it already but just in case I'll mention that it is reverse thread.

Good question, actually. I am not sure. My parts counter guy pulled it out and suggested it to me. If anyone has the part number please post!

Bingo!

I have a really nice set of wrenches and the Mechanical Fan Delete Thread is in my Sig. Best Mod I've done to my ZHP! Beings I don't use them anymore make me an offer and I will send them to ya. I think I paid $35 for them but you get the Mafia discount.
