Is there really a big difference between the 84T flex head and the 120T flex head? I bought a set and could have sworn that they were the 120ts but turns out they are 84ts. After waiting impatiently for them to arrive I am kinda bummed out!!

I own both and after some testing I feel that the 120xp is slightly finer and does require slightly less room to work as they are described. However it is not a huge differance as the 84t ratchets are already a great choice and have never let me down with any space restraints

Yep...

36 fewer clicks on the 84...

And...

The 120 tooth version has a sign on the upper left corner of the foam holder...:evil::lol_hitti:ninja:

I love them...

I ordered 4pcs 120xp flex heads. It will be here tomorrow, I will compare them with snap-on.

I just don't know if I am going to like notched flex head.

The heads on the 120XP ratchets are beveled on the top outer edge, the heads are slightly larger and thicker than the 84 tooth models.

I own both and prefer the 84 tooth versions.

Is there much of a difference between 84 teeth and the split pawls on the 120xp, I don't think so but, that's just me.:dunno:

Thanks guys!! I was just bummed but now I feel much better maybe another time I'll get the 120. But for now I'm sure they will be just fine.

They're all right, you can't go wrong with either. Heck, I have a 1/2" 60T Gearwrench that isn't too shabby either! :thumbup:
