Yeah this isn’t a precision fit part. As long as it’s not falling out it’s good enough.

And you’ll have spares for a big toolbox on your dozer JIC you need them on the jobsite

It can’t be too bad of a case of OCD if you’re cool with having a mish mash of different brands 😂

In my experience large wrenches are often used to hold a nut (or bolt head) while an impact or socket works the other end of the fastener. A g8 1” bolt has a torque spec of nearly 900 ft-lbs. An open or box end wrench ain’t getting that loose. Cheap large wrenches seem to work fine for...
