Unreal quality! fits socket wrench

Lifebelt for removing rusted or stuck exhaust manifold bolts. You'll need a MAPGAS blowtorch, a PB blaster, and these extractors. The key is the first step, heat the bolt to cherry red, let it cool, spray on the PB blaster, leave for a while. Connect these puller tips to a 1/2" 24" snapper adapter "the longer the better". Depending on the amount of rust, you may need to try this technique multiple times. ****IMPORTANT**** Do not overtighten the screw! If the screw is stuck, do a 1/4 turn, thenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Square shank with hex base for use with impact gun, ratchet, wrench or pliers
Cons
  • Slightly torn

This kit solves every problem

I thought this kit was a bit pricey at first but it ended up saving me valuable time and headaches. The fact is that he paid ten times more for himself. This is especially true for stuck caliper bolts in my particular case. The sockets are solid, well made and I use them in abusive professional environments, but they still have the bite and grip they had from day one. Sometimes, without the help of a clamp or hammer, it doesn't bite into the screws quickly. It's ok, these are through sockets so

Pros
  • Up to 10x longer hammer life than other hammer extractors
Cons
  • Very expensive

I don't write many reviews let alone positive ones so that should tell you something. As for this product, the straight groove design is a great idea and that's why I chose this product over the typical spiral/tapered/unidirectional grooves that everyone else makes. 1. As mentioned in the description, straight grooves allow loosening and tightening. This is incredibly useful for gently loosening fasteners so as not to damage the bolt or stud in the part. 2. Other designs that "cut" into theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Chrome-Molybdenum (Cr-Mo) alloy steel for exceptional strength and durability
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
