Driveline socket?

[Ruger_556]

I can't seem to find one in the Matco catalog?

There is a new Snap On "Catalog 1200" that came with an order recently-on page 241 there are some "Heavy Duty Truck Tools" such as "S6197 Heavy Duty Driveline Socket" and "S6260 Heavy Duty Spicer Drive Socket"
one thing is like a 1/2" drive extension except instead of a male end it has a 12 point 12mm. opening (S6160) don't think that one is impact

Are you talking the ford driveshaft bolts? The 12mm 12 point?

No. 1/2" 12 points used on 1760 series u-joints. 12mm no worky...

I just use a snap on 12 point swivel socket, not sure of the part # though. they also have the S6197, but i've never seen anybody in the shop use one.

use a matco 12 point impact socket for the past 10 years,plus have snapon 12 point sockets in 1/2 and 12mm. no issues, also got the swivel 1/2 socket,rarely use it,but it works.

I found one... Matco BXP162. They're calling it a head bolt socket in the catalog.
