i picked up a set of those sockets you use to remove bolts with sripped heads on them.
those things are really worth it, they grap on anything ready to be twisted out so i suggest everyone atleast buy the small set sears sells for 9 or 10 bux, its got 5 pcs that cover about 8 different sizes.
you dont use a ratchet on them, you place the socket on the bolt head and then use a box in wrench to twist. I recently became aware of this an now they reside on my wall in the shop.
If i get back in at Michel Tire Plus i will grab myself a set you have no idea how stupidly cheap people can be, we sold replacement oil pan pulgs for like 5 dollars and 9/10 times they declined.
THEY ARE AWSOME I HAVE SET + WE SELL THEM AT AUTO ZONE :flame:
Omg is it another Autozoner! Woot Store 1738 here!
are they like that gator head thing from informercials way back when? I will prolly just go to sear at look around for them.
no they look like a spiraling cutter that gets progresivly (sp) smaller inside. As you turn the socket it digs down applying more force making it nearly imposible to slip. The gator thing has a bunch of pins that can break off.
okay just wanting to know what to look for. Thanks. I guess if jcass recomends it its good enough for me.
HEY COUGAR SE STORE#469 IN THE HOUSE :flame:
You and im_gay_as_hell are neck and neck for most annoying posts.
Bird351 has already said it once...
Somebody needs to pass him a beer so he can calm down and stop yelling.
They don't let you yell in Autozone do they?
Test
That's what the test/suggestion forum is for. You can't tell when your caps lock is off? There should be a little light on your keyboard somewhere telling you whether it's on or off.
Anyway, back to topic...
Those tools rank right up there with the wheel and such other great inventions.
i guess a pic would be better........
i dissagree. they dont work on a very well rusted bolt
had to get out the dremel and cut it off :disappoin
