Back in the 70's when I was a mechanic I could do the drum brake job quicker with my BFS (big f***in' screwdriver) than the other guys with all their specialty tools from Snap On...


I still have that screwdriver somewhere...

If you are talking about the one I posted; just look around the parts stores, there are a couple of permutations. This one is J38400. Use the pointy handle to install the spring, don't have a pic of that.

There’s the Lisle 50600, to complicated.
