Review on πŸ› οΈ 9 Piece Shankly Axle Nut Socket Set for 3/4" Drive Axle by Leo Fairchild

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great deal poorly packaged for shipping

This seems to be one of the best deals available on metric axle nut sockets. 9 pieces with a gap (37 mm). The black oxide finish looks rough and the size is marked on the terminals so they might need to be re-labeled somehow if used heavily. Drive side and drive side are beveled very nicely and there don't seem to be any sharp edges. The case is made out of cheap blow molded plastic and looks pretty thin. When the product arrived, one of the latches came loose, the sockets popped out of their respective recesses in the case, and the handle was covered with a zipper. On closer inspection everything was in the box, nothing was broken and I was able to put everything back together. This is the main reason why he is struck down by a star. Obviously, whoever packs this product for shipping has no idea what they are doing. The delivery was impressively fast. I chose the low cost option and received my item in 3 or 4 days. Be careful buyers. As stated in the description, these are 3/4" sockets. They are only compatible with a 1/2" impact wrench, ratchet, or hammer via an adapter.

Pros
  • Tire and wheel tools
Cons
  • Good but not great
