Anybody know where I could get a bushing tool like the one in this vid ?

I have seen a few which you can us with spanners but as I always have access to a vice, I would like a simple one like the one in the vid, 12.7 mm for a fox RP23.

Cheers

I've got a spanners one but it'd work fine in a vice, you'd just take the bolt out.

This is not mine but it's the one I'd get now

I have the same one as in above link from Northwind. Works very well.

Another +1 for the tool linked by North wind. Absolutely effortless. Use it with spanners and you can fit a new bush on the bike without removing the shock. It'll fit in vice too if you like
