Kent Moore Connector Tool

[bmxr4life87]

Anyone have an idea why the Kent Moore J-42971 power steering line disconnect tool is so expensive? Its just a piece of flat stock bent into a 90 degree bend with a 1/2" slot on one end and a 3/4" slot on the other end. The edges are tapered but nothing extreme just a taper so they can fit between fittings to pop the lock collar. Heres a link

One on Ebay now for B I N for $7.96

Its from a good seller, too. Not sure what makes it $118 one place and $8 the next.

k-m likes to hose the dealers on the open account
they are essential tools after all and they just send them to you

Kent Moore has some nice specialty tools but are ridiculously priced ..

It lists for the same price on the Gm website. No wonder Kent Moore is often referred to as Kost Moore tools.

I would definitely look for it on Ebay if I needed one.
