So .... I've emailed and had a response from Graham.

Kingpin removal drifts are coming in at £60. You need to specify if you are going to whack em with a hammer of be more sedate and use a press as they are different.

Bush alignment pins are £64. Can maybe get away without those.

The bear ring remover comes in at £90.

These all appear awesome pieces of kit. I also had someone else endorse them as well as Ken :)

So, you have my Christmas list now. :lol:

Crikey,
that's inflation for you, mind you rather a lot of water has passed under the bridge since I bought my tools from Graham... ;)

My friendly garage still has all the old tools on the wall from when they were exclusively Citroën people. He said he felt lucky to have the one used for bearings. Nearside is done and was apparently badly in need. (He used other words.)

I think we are very lucky to get the special tools at all after all this time. :D
