Mazda SST 49 B027 006

[GMAYS]

The service manual states special service tool 49 B027 006 must be inserted into the transmission after the CV axle is removed to prevent the side gears from falling. Is this tool available anywhere other than the dealer or can you substitute something else? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance, G.

Don't worry about it, you will still be able to get the CVs back in the trans.

Thank you Sir.
