Ayuh,.... I've got a full set of Snap-ons that are only as long as necessary,...

1/4" to 3/8", or vise versa, is less that an inch long,....

3/4" to 1" is maybe 2" long,....

Then use an standard extension on it if more length is needed,....

I have had the HF ones going on about a year now with Zero issues there not for super high torque Applications anyway, being a reducer and extension both cause torque loss
but they seem to run fine on my ir2135Ti... and have yet to blowup in my face lol...nor have any of there impact extension every given me an issue Std, wobble, or adapter, ect...
