Handsome sockets are shop tough, plated to resist corrosion, and color-coded for fast identification. Set takes up less room in your tool box than conventional torque sticks, and comes in a handy blow-molded case for portability and easy organization.

Torque-limiting socket set prevents over-tightening of wheel bolts and lug nuts. Attach them to your ½-inch breaker bar or impact gun and tighten the wheel bolts or lugs until the socket stops tightening at 74 ft-lb (100 Nm). Then final-tighten the wheel fasteners to the recommended specification using a torque wrench.

Features:

• 17, 19, and 21 mm six-point impact sockets to fit most metric wheel bolt heads and lug nuts.
• Combine these with our Protecta Sockets and the Schwaben ½-inch torque wrench for a complete wheel fastener solution.

BMW E60 M5 Crank Case Test Cap

• Enhanced Accuracy: Provides reliable crankcase pressure testing for better diagnostic results.

When it comes to the torque found on axle nuts you're already looking at using a breaker bar or impact gun not to mention the corrosion collected over the years. The safest approach is using impact socket, since they are built with the strength needed to avoid breaking under pressure.

Features:

• Heavy duty ½ inch-drive sockets and drivers have extra thick alloy steel walls, and take a beating that would destroy normal sockets
•  Durable black oxide coating wipes clean easily and resists rust
• Contains three 12-point sockets for a sure grip on the most common sized axle nuts, plus three hex drives for removing common hex-head plugs and fasteners
• Conveniently packaged in a blow molded case, this set will please the most demanding professional technician or discriminating prosumer

Kit includes:

• 30mm, 32mm, and 36mm - 12-point axle nut sockets - ½" drive

• 14mm, 17mm, and 19mm hex head drive axle shoulder bolt sockets - ½" drive

Commonly used when replacing axle shaft boots.

Features:

• Crimp and flatten design
• Produces a clean factory style crimp

When dismantling a suspension strut sometimes the securing nut can be difficult to access and the central strut itself needs to be held still while the nut is undone. This new Shock Absorber Tool Kit is designed to overcome these problems and make the job quick and easy.

The go-through design of the sockets and ratchet design allows the strut lock extensions to go right through the middle of the ratchet and socket. Five different strut lock extensions are included, to fit a variety of applications. Seven go-through deep sockets (16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22 and 24mm) are included, plus a sliding T-bar.

Once the spring is compressed and the top plate is free, simply choose the correct strut lock extension and socket. Then fit the socket and the ratchet handle, and fit the strut lock straight through. The central strut is held steady, and the securing nut is quickly removed.

Specifically designed for repairing and replacing shock absorbers and struts

The impact driver is a fast and effective way to remove tight or corroded screws and bolts, reducing the chance of rounding off--or rounding out--the fastener head. Insert a slotted or Phillips head screwdriver bit into the driver.

For stubborn bolts, remove the black screwdriver bit adapter head, and replace it with any 3/8 - inch drive socket.

Features:

• Impact driver tool with red rubber grip 
• Four screwdriver bits (2 Phillips; 2 slotted) 
• 3/8 - inch drive bit holder
