CMO Snake 200 Hydraulic Chassis Repair Tool Complete with Case and CMO Long Setting Handle (with its own tube protector).

The CMO Snake 200 is an incredibly useful and specialist Chassis Repair Tool, used to re-form things like Chassis Rails but from the inside. A typical application is when repairing frontal damage where the two main Chassis Rails have been distorted. After using a Jig to pull these back into alignment, one is often left with a distorted box section, that is hard to fully re-shape, even though it has been pulled straight. To fix that, just temporarily cut off the end bumper plate from the Chassis Rail, then the CMO Snake 200 can be inserted and fed down inside of the Chassis Rail, using the CMO Long Setting Handle to position where the Snake must apply hydraulic pressure. Then pump it up, and watch the magic happen! When finshed, just release the pressure and withdraw the Snake. Then re-weld on the end bumper plate.

I paid a small fotune for this, but I retired from that line of work 7 or so years ago, and it has not been used since. The tool has always been well looked after, and remains in good condition.

This is one of those tools that only does the one job, but does that job perfectly.

I cannot now test this, but it's a standard hydraulic device, so most specialists can replace any seals inside, should that ever be needed. As far as I am aware, it is in good working order. and worked fine last time I used it.

One retailer has this tool for sale at Euro 536 plus VAT, but only on back order from CMO in Italy.
