Yep...somewhere in my inventory is one that I purchased for a small fortune from snap-on or mac or that other company..dont remember which. I havent seen it in several years. The shocks I bought it for were so close to the top I couldnąt get a socket in there anyway and ended up using open end wrenches. Seems I have some other tools like that as well. Guarenteed to work for everything except the job I buy them for. jimt On 10/2/05 5:07 PM, "Robert Cardo" <rrecardo@WEBTV.NET> wrote: > <<I also have changed shocks on many many vehicles.
