Used it to change my suspension today. Only victim was a torx bit that my mate borrowed to take the seat out of a corsa with

Tools stood up to some right beatings when undoing some of the rusted bolts on my car, so far so good.

To be honest I think he was using the wrong size too, which didn't help - but the bit just sheered off half way down.

We had a spare from another toolbox, and the same bolt actually twisted that one - so the bolt was clearly to blame

The socket wrenches and the 19mm box spanner took a beating though today - and they look/work good as new.

The various combinations of socket depth, extension and knuckle made for some light work of some otherwise awkward jobs... well worth having over my old sockets.

I do most of my stuff with a halfords kit and we've only broken a couple of the bits. I think I'll get my own one for my birthday while it's reduced.

ahh really dont neeeed this but might just have to get it you know, i will have doubled up on some things but tis a bargain...

and regards to the seats in corsa b's Kyle T, its a t40 size i have taken out numerous seats which have not been touched since factory (so locktighted to fuck basically) best to use a long t40 1/2 drive bit as 3/8 drive are no where near tough enough in my experience to cope with the stress lol , and plusgas the shit out of the bits before hand.

Mines taken a right beating over the last 2 years.
Had to replace mummy and baby ratchet and an extension bar, but no questions asked.
