Review on πŸ”§ KAX 3/8-Inch Drive, 7/8-Inch (22 mm) Offset Oxygen Sensor Socket: Easy O2 Sensor Removal & Installation, Wire Gate Access for Side Entry, Prevents Wire Damage, Fits All Vehicles by Chris Burns

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't fit 3/8 ratchet

Thought my O2 sensors on my 2006 Chevy Silverado were a problem because everything I've read about them has been withdrawn. No they just came, I used a regular 7/8 wrench on 3 out of 4. The only thing I needed this head for wasn't that difficult to get to, the only problem I had throughout the process was that the 3/8" platter on this socket was too small! It was 100 out and I was struggling with my ratchet to find the right combination of extensions for what I needed. I ran a small file into the drive hole but that didn't help. I've tried many extensions and 3/8 ratchets, they didn't fit either. I had to hit him and then knock out the ratchet with the hit. No it wasn't a locking ball, I pushed it in and it even got stuck on once. All this lasted longer than the sensors! Manufacturers, please do a quality check every second! Also, it seems strong. Just like a socket should be.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Low repairability
