Title: Can you help me identify Lancia factory tools from reference numbers please
Post by: chriswgawne on 21 October, 2020, 09:17:28 AM
I am trying to clear my shelves of alything which I am unlikely to use going forward.

I have a number of 'special' tools, some of which are unused OE Lancia stamped with a Part Number which I cant identify as follows:

88041123
8015161
8021559

Can anyone help please?
Thanks
Chris

The 8021559 tool still has the Lancia/Autobianchi/FIAT label attached.
Here are a couple of photos to help with identifying them.

Chris, 8041123 is a gearbox locking nut joint mounting flange tool according to my Fulvia (S1 I expect) photo copied manual, I have not found the other numbers so far.

Thanks Neil,
It would appear that all of these tools including what I described as a Flavia hub tool are in fact multi purpose Lancia tools not necessarily relevant to just one model or application.
Aurelia transaxles for example have several examples where I have always used a C spanner (or worse) so I have decided to keep all of these and make sure they are more accessible.
Simon Ingman has a book with details of a lot of Lancia special tools in it ( it has all the above for example)  and this book doesn't seem to particularly mention specific Models, just general applications.

All those numbers do not exist in the club tool list. The Fulvia gearbox tools the club has is a set with no specific numbers but it would include the tool Neil mentions.

All 4 of the tools I listed ( 3 in this thread and 1 in another thread) are clearly shown with the references I used in Simon's book which came from a few years ago from a long established French Lancia dealer who was shutting down.
I haven't established yet whether these tools are cross referenced with Model and Application  in Simon's book. They were all tools for 'rings with slots' and I suppose they may well be part of a sort of 'standard metric' range?

I have quite a few other special Lancia tools - some homemade, some factory made - which are unidentified as yet.

Lancia and their tools - interesting subject. The best technical manual they ever published was the workshop manual for the 3Ro (my copy is from 1941). Its really amazing - there are some 30 pages of special tools. PDF attached -  in two posts, due to size.

It would interesting to see if any of Chris' tools are listed here....

Stupid question......but did all car manufacturers have so many specialist tools to work on their vehicles back in the day......and how about today?
