I also posted this in the "wanted to buy" forum, but i thought I'd put it here too. I'm looking for the wrench to remove the adjusting cone lock nut on the Bendix Automatic (AB-102 is the wrench number). Please don't laugh (but a chuckle into your hand is ok!)...I know it's a hard tool to come by (by "hard" I mean "next to impossible."), but I'm keeping my hopes up.
Unless someone knows if you can rebuild the hub from the other side...then I might not need the "proper" tool.
Thanks

Mark Smith has the factory repair instructions here;

I know he has talked about disassembling the hub from the non drive side also, but I don't see that approach in a quick look at his website. It can be done. You might email him for the instructions. If the tool is the one I am thinking of, you can make one by finding the proper sized socket and grinding the "prongs" into it.
