I didn’t consider one of these necessary as I had didn’t have many problems by hand. Then when I done a big job on a car at home I got a loan of one. I’m now set on getting one once I decide which one. Makes things so much easier, especially removing nuts and bolts that would snap if removed by hand.

Very impressive indeed. Just a thought, sometimes, access to the bolts isn't great (control arms etc) - anyone used one in anger with extensions and couplings?

Cheers Thumbs Up

Yes, but I found extensions do rob some of the Torque - these look very good value and also have a wobble socket https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=ht...0258428229 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

The UJ is the weapon of choice for me, albeit, Snap On. Makes all the difference Thumbs Up

Where did you get your one?
My local tool shops only seem to have the 1/4" drive.
Thanks for your help.

In a similar vein, here's the one I'm now seriously considering:
https://www.milwaukeepowertools.co.uk/milwaukee-m18onefhiwf12-0

I'm guessing this is the one to get (for 1/2 inch anyway)?

Cheers,

Stu, that’s the one you need - High Torque 1/2” with the Friction Ring - that’s the bare unit though, if you get the one with 2x 5amp batteries and the quick charger the cheapest I could currently find was £449 direct from Milwaukee. You may already have the batteries and they will also work in other M18 tools 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

Milwaukee direct - they were the cheapest at the moment, plus all the others charge extra for delivery 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

Couldn’t wait any longer, I bought this: https://www.sgs-engineering.com/power-tool...-bare-unit

Already have 4x 5Ah batteries, so only needed the bare unit

And another one of these to replace it’s older, dying brother...
