Attention SK lovers:

Interesting offer, although I already have the line wrenches. All the other non SK wrenches I have such as the Armstrong, Snap-on I still use.
Just for giggles what would be your asking price vs. a trade in the double box ends.

Hmmm, they're $120 new. Maybe $70 shipped?

Who the hell wants SAE wrenches these days?? =]

In 6.5 years of working on jets, I've encountered 3 things that are metric:

1. The center bolt that holds the pulley on the ac compressors are 10 mm (small jets).

2. The mount bolts that thread into the ac compressor are 16mm.

3. The socket head screws that hold the hydraulic pump together on the citation x take a 6mm hex.

I have a 10 mm socket, 16 mm wrench, and a 6mm allen wrench in my box at work, that's it.

I'm at the other end of the spectrum. I have a couple sets of standard sockets and a 1-5/16" crowfoot, that i bought because it was cheap. Come to think of it, it's probably perfect for VW Trackrods..

Can't remember if i have any other standard stuff.

I use standard wrenches more than metric everyday. If the machine is older than say 10 years, I can pretty much guarantee half or more of the fastners are standard. I use like 10,13,16,18 commonly. Other than that it is standard or it is a metric bolt that a std. works on well, i.e. 24mm- 15/16", 30mm-1 3/16", 36mm-1 7/16" (at least I think that is what the mm equivalents are)

I usually reach for 5/16 and 1/4 for hose clamps... though 8mm would work fine for the 5/16 ones... Swapped a master cylinder on a 93 Suburban a couple weeks ago, the mounting nuts and and flare nuts on the lines were SAE.... the "male" end of a spart plug socket is 3/4..... air tool fittings, think they're 3/8.... well that's what i can think of right now!
