Fantastic looking set

I really only need Subaru's 13mm square differential drain pipes. But they cost between 25 and 35 dollars for 1 piece. This set is durable and looks great.

Pros
  • I'm holding my fists
Cons
  • Empty

Needed a size Subaru

I only needed one of the special sockets for my Subaru but it only cost a few dollars more than one socket so I got the whole kit instead.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Incredible piggy bank

11 mm and 13 mm were not found in this set.

Could not find 11 & 13mm sockets in this kit. It is often recommended to use a 3/8" (9.5mm) or 1/2" (12.7mm) drive as the tool. Often this resulted in the drain plug being unscrewed. I prefer to switch my plugs to hex when they come out, but I can't always find a compatible hex plug. I've only used 11mm and 13mm square heads, but I'm sure others will come in handy in the future.

Pros
  • Complete Kit
Cons
  • Contact Seller

Well made and problem solver

I've struggled with compound tools for a while and always found I had the 'right' tool that didn't quite excel in a particular application (drain plugs). After almost giving up on the diff fill plug, I decided to roll the dice and hope that the special plug fill tools were better than their traditional counterparts. The bet paid off! My socket was tight and tight, allowing me to finally free the plug that previously constantly threatened to come loose. I regret not buying them sooner and cannot

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Stock availability
