I need to find a 12-point star tool to remove the CV/Drive shaft from the tranny so I can remove the tranny and see if my (what use to be shifting problem) is the pilot bearing or not. Anybody know where I can get one? I can get it in 1st and 2nd and reverse only. Very hard to get it back out of reverse. Sometime 1st and 2nd move easy other times not. Sometime the van rolls easy (in nuetral) and other times not. Clutch appears to disengage properly. I do think it is a seized pilot bearing.
