The 27mm Swing Arm Tool socket has a shoulder milled on the outer diameter to allow the socket to fit in the swing arm recesses of the frame.

This tool fits all twin shock models.

The face chamfer of this 30mm Fork Cap Socket has been milled off to better grip the lower fork cap nuts on all 1967 - 1973 airheads and the upper spring retainer nuts on  /6 and later airheads.
