Thread: where can I buy one of these - limited access socket

you make one out of a 17mm deep reach SCA/kingcrome 3/8th or 1/2 inch drive single hex (or bi hex if your good with the grinder)

socket.

in place you can also use (depending on access)

a 17mm Ring/oe spanner, heated and bent at the ring end and open end with the ring suitably segmented with a nut and bolt to drive the OE side

a 17mm ring oE spanner bent at the ring, cut short and with any socked suitably welded on

a 17mm crows foot with an extension bar inserted being driven by a suitable 3/8th or 1/2 inch ratchet.

a piece of 17mm inside square box with a pair of slots cut in opposites sides to allow the nut to fit in and with one side cut suitably with a nut welded on so you can drive it with a socket (you can use a shifter straight onto the box)

Thanks Blknight,
I have crows feet, I flare spanner, but access won't allow them, I thought of grinding out a socket, but have since located a supplier and others in Tech chatter have advise places.
this is a pic of what I need it for.
