You might try finding a buddy there in TN and order the tool, split the cost and help EACH other install the IMS.
I am cheap about most things. This would NOT be something I would skimp on and would buy it new….so there are no nicks, deviations, or anything that would cause the IMS tool to go bad, not sure what that would take. Invariably the guy selling his on ebay would be the one that had a nick in it, and, after you have installed it, you find a seal leaking or the bearing is not installed correctly or something.
Just a thought, I have NOT done mine yet. It is my winter project, so I too will be doing soon.
