[Collins] Is there a source for R388/51J aligment tools?

[geraldj]

There were four bristol spline wrenches on the back, plus I think a double offset 
phillips driver, probably #1 and #2 as I recall. I have the numbers for the Bristol 
spline wrenches at home. A sets costs only a couple bucks from McMaster-Carr, but a lot 
more on line from some selling sets for the R388. The tools are not used for alignment, 
but for set screws on couplings, gears, and knobs.
