Click Here to View a Video Demonstration of the Redline Tune-Up Tool!Tired of looking at cars on display with bent axles? Want your cars to roll straight so you can win that downhill race? Then this tool is for you. Designed specifically for Hot Wheels from 68-72. This indispensable tool actually works to help you straighten bent axles and removing wheels! If you’re familiar with the Tune-up Wrench that was included in the Tune-Up Tower Set back in 1969, you will recognize this tool. It’s a beautiful recreation of the tool. Faithfully reproduced, all the way down to the zinc plating, durable steel material and like manufacturing method. This tool is just spot on! Even the small eyelet at the end is there! I guess someone back in the 1960s thought the kids would wear the tool around their neck so they could repair the cars frequently as they blew through the superchargers!! Rumor has it that this tool was used by factory workers to salvage bent axle cars that were damaged during production. Two important improvements were made to increase the functionality of the wrench; The thickness was increased slightly and the blade support was extended on the bottom of the tool. Both changes make the tool more rigid, so when you’re actually using it, it gets the job done without bending. The originals bent very easily. Each tool is made of high-grade stamped steel with bright zinc plating. The finish is what the cars looked like before they were painted. Both the front and back sides are blank. The finish looks a lot like the finish on the bases of the early cars from 68-72. Here’s a link to a document that will show you how to use the tool on your axles and wheels. You can print it off or bookmark it for future reference. Tune Up Tool Instructions for 1968-1972 Redline Hot Wheels Please note the original shown on the bottom in the picture is shown only for comparison purposes. The original is not included in this listing and is not for sale. How Does It Work? The tool is 2 ¾” long and a little over ½” wide, so it’s very easy to manipulate with your fingers. It’s actually very useful for two things: Straightening bent axles and removing/installing white bearing type wheels. The small cut in the tip slips over the wire axle in between the wheel and the base of the car, allowing you to have direct force on the bent section of the axle without just putting another bend on the already bent wire. It’s quite effective after you get the hang of it. If you are used to prying off the wheels with a small screwdriver, this tool does the job just as well if not better. When reinstalling the wheels, you place the tool on the axle behind the white bearing, and then the force you apply to the wheel is isolated to the wheel and the bearing. If you’ve ever bent an axle while putting a wheel back on, you know how frustrating that is! This tool eliminates that risk. We offer 16 different styled wheels for the early Redlines.

How To Use The Tool Taking Off a Bearing Type Wheel Get the car upside-down and have the wheel you are going to work on away from you so you can see the backside clearly Support one side of the wheel with your thumb as you hold the car. Slide the wrench into position as shown. While you are supporting the wheel with your thumb, begin to pry the wheel off slowly and gently. Make sure you are not pushing against the bearing with the wrench. All the force should be on the backside of the wheel, not the bearing. Your thumb will hold the wheel straight so the wheel does not twist while you are prying with the wrench on the opposite side of the wheel. The wheel will slide off into your hand Putting A Bearing Type Wheel On Slide the wrench in behind the bearing as shown in the picture below. Always have the wrench approach the axle from the bumper side of the car. This will give you the best grip on the car with your other hand during the process. With the wrench engaged behind the bearing, you can actually hold the car like this with one hand. Take the loose wheel with your other hand and slide it over the bearing. Use the wrench to ensure that the bearing is stable as you slide the wheel on. Press the wheel onto the bearing until the bearing is flush with the backside of the wheel. There should be no need to force it on. These things slide together easily. Your wheel is installed! To straighten the axle, start from this position and manipulate the wheel and axle carefully to your desired position. Don’t twist too hard, as the axle is only piano wire!
