I can't seem to find them now sorry. I made them out of some 20mm and 25mm copper tube they looked like this but with a slot cut to bend over the pipe.

They worked well however I would advise buying the proper tool I only made mine because I am impatient and I had 20mm and 25mm copper tube lying around.

Video on spring coupler removal. You should also blast loads of WD40 in there to remove any debris and lubricate the garter spring. When you change the seals do not use a metallic tool to remove them use a plastic pick or what I used a wooden tooth pick.
