We have both tools and are using them. the problem is to lock the connecting link - very small parts that need plier and hands but not enough space for the hands... I realized that our problem was the gap between the 2 sheetmetal, we had 5 centimeters gap but in other drivetrains that were posted here I saw a lot more.
