Engine: TDI: 850 TDI (D5252T) Timing Belt Tools

[Paul850TDI]

Hello,
I am just planning of the timing belt change of my '96 850 TDI. Also want to change the hydraulic lifters as well.
As I read the forum I will need 2 special Volvo tools.
Namely 9995645 for locking the crankshaft and 9995644 for the camshaft locking.
If one of you guys have these could you share the dimensions of them (then I may could make them by myself)?

Thank you for your effort in advance!

Paul

I made a 9995645 out of a bit of pipe:

Then used a pair of grips to hold it in place whilst I undid the crank bolt.

Martin_R_Smith on here, then advised me that you can use something like a crowbar to hold the flywheel in place, by putting it through the inspection plate on the bottom of the gearbox. I have since tried this, and it works a treat.

Regarding 9995644, this is just a little plate that slots into the end of the camshaft on the passenger side, but if you're stuck, you can use something like the tool for tightening discs onto a grinder. It slots in, in much the same manner.

Thank you for the infos!
Could you measure the inner/outer diameter of the tube and the slot?
