Review on 🦍 Gorilla Automotive 17TWS Thin Wall Impact Sockets 17mm Hex 1/2 Drive with Protective Sleeve by David Ross

Revainrating 1 out of 5

looks good but broke on first use

The socket comes in a nice protective cover and looks good. However, it broke on the first attempt to use it. I was trying to loosen an eyebolt on a BMW wheel. Factory specs are around 89 pounds per foot. I can't say for sure, but I doubt the screw was over tightened. The car was only serviced by a BMW dealer and they had to get it right. After breaking that thin-walled head, I had no problem loosening the eyebolt instead of the stock 17mm head.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
