Hmm, I did clean the inner works with brake cleaner and tried a light coat of Marvel Mystery oil, but there was no change. I will however try spinning them in a drill, thanks for the suggestions.

Great, thanks guys, now I know. I think I will exchange them and until I get a set of 84T that work. Later, I'll buy the four piece 120xp flex head set and I should be good for most situations I will ever have.

I've been doing the research on Gearwrench ratchets and was considering ordering a set of fixed head ratchets to try them out and if I liked them, order the 4 piece flex head 120xp ratchet set too. I happened upon a 3 piece 84 teeth set locally which had 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" ratchets (81206f)...

I recently bought the same USA made set and like it. The missing 11mm wrench is going to drive my inner OCD crazy.

I am interested in the bottom three drawers as well. It is your box, do what you like.

Tellingthem posted this a week or so ago. I bought the 20 piece Professional full polish SAE and metric stubby wrench set, USA made on sale for $79 and really like them. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=268342

From this thread I looked at the Sears website and ordered the 20 piece professional full polish metric and SAE stubby combination wrench set on sale for $79. They were ordered on Monday morning and they arrived today, three days later. Had an email confirmation within minutes, tracking within...

Nice work, nice cars and looking forward to seeing the finished rooftop garden.
