Dynamic Tools D010028 Metric Socket Review

These swivel nut sockets are unique and offer good options when working with lines and complex nuts in difficult situations. Great addition to your tools.

Delivery was very fast. The quality of the tool can be seen from the chrome surface. I've only used them twice and find them durable and well built. I plan to use them frequently for my DIY projects, so as they age my rating will reflect.

The price and design of this set is good in it. It's affordable and has helped me in many situations when I've been working on my car's suspension. The only thing that confuses me is that the mating pin on one of the connectors is constantly sticking out under heavy loads. Putting it back in place with pliers isn't a big deal, but it tells me it might break soon. Otherwise a very good and inexpensive kit for do-it-yourselfers.

I used a standard kit to loosen the flare nuts on the left and right front brake lines on a 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD. Without this tool I don't know how I would have done it. That was difficult enough, but it would be impossible or extremely pathetic to try any other way. The pivot on the nests has enough friction to keep it in place but moves easily. Very well built. I bought both metric and standard sets. This is the type of tool I will use again and again year after year, but it's worth it!

I like the swivel head which gives me the flexibility to get into tight spaces. They seem strong and durable. I complain that the size tag on the base is random and misplaced. When the "jacks" are in the holder, they are in many directions, but never easy to read. I have poor eyesight when it comes to reading fine print so this is very important to me. My need for order is also insulted. It seems that a quality system that levels surfaces before marking would solve this problem. Problem.

I bought these thinking they would save a day when I work on machinery and vehicles. I was right. With a locking extension 'locked' to them, they're great for breaking awkwardly placed canvas nuts - and regular nuts into the bargain. I use a pair of 3/8 length locking extensions with them. I use the latch extension as a handle, like an open end wrench or 90 degree ratchet to work like a duckfoot wrench. Pretty cool. Just today they made replacing the power steering pump in my buddy's 95 foot…
