    Craftsman Bolt-Out sets, old, new, etc

    Haven’t used the low profile set. People seem to like it. But I stripped out one out of the regular set trying to remove a bolt and replaced it with the Irwin Hanson’s which are holding up better. It was a 20 year loctited and rust welded grade 8 body mount bolt. The Hanson’s didn’t get it...
