I ordered this tool to check the bellhousing alignment on my Lakewood. The folks at Browell's probably don't sell a ton of these for Mopars so I had to gather a couple measurements before I could place my order. Figured I'd post about it in case someone else needs the info... ScottSmith_Harms did a great job posting images and information about the tool and the bellhousing opening measurements here (Thanks Scott!): https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/8208101/site_id/1The bellhousing opening is either 4.850" or 4.685" The part of the Browell tool that bolts to the crankshaft is one of two sizes, either 2.160" or 2.043". The measurement is made by measuring the outside diameter of the "ring" at the end of the crankshaft. I have a 440 crank which measured at 2.160.

I received the tool quickly, but its taken a while to get under the car. The bowling pin part of the tool fits snug on the torque converter register. However, the 4.850 "ring" size that I gave to Browell's is too big for the opening in my bellhousing. Looks like it may actually be 4.805" instead. To be continued... Yep. I measured mine with two different calipers and came up with 4.80 as well.
