The JIMS valve lifter holding tool is a clever accessory that keeps the hydraulic valve lifters in the raised position during work on the Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 1999-2017, Sportster XL 2000-2020 and Buell (except 1125R) valve trains.
When removing cylinder heads, replacing pushrods, or performing valve train operations, the hydraulic valve lifters can drop back into their housing, which greatly complicates reassembly and requires bleeding the valve lifters. This JIMS tool holds the valve lifters in the raised position, preventing these complications and ensuring quick, bleed-free reassembly.
Vehicle compatibility:
- Harley-Davidson Twin Cam (all 1999-2017 models)
- Harley-Davidson Sportster XL 883, 1200 (2000-2020)
- Buell (all models except 1125R)
Technical advantages:
- Holds valve lifters in the raised position during work
- Prevents hydraulic valve lifters from dropping back down
- Facilitates reassembly and eliminates valve lifter bleeding
- Saves considerable time during valve train work
- Simple and effective JIMS construction
- Essential for any cylinder head or valve train work
A practical and clever JIMS tool that simplifies and speeds up all your valve train work on Twin Cam, Sportster and Buell.
