Review on ๐Ÿ”ง GEARWRENCH 5 Piece GearBox 12 Point XL Double Box Metric Ratcheting Wrench Set - 85987 by David Bar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Life really sucked before these buttons

These buttons are very big but damn they do the job. The ratchet is smooth and the angleless end provides a fantastic torque advantage when loosening frozen nuts and bolts. The only error I could think of on this point is how BIG the case is; It's not the most efficient use of space in the world (they could halve the size of the suitcase if they put the keys to the side). You either need a very large tool box that fits in your suitcase, or you just need to find another way to store your wrenches. I have a large snap-on tool box to fit the case and I put a matching set of smaller metric wrenches on top. It's nice to be able to take the case out of the toolbox and use it on your project without worrying about damaging it. Everything else in this set is well thought out. Exceptional build quality. A few years ago these gear wrenches were a novelty. Given how little space you get in the engine compartments of new cars, they are now a must have for professional and hobby mechanics alike. The price is what you get. As a result, I received sets of metrics and SAE (tools for four cases). It was money well spent. Made in Taiwan.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
