[madbasser]

21/32 and 25/32.... :


ok fine 9/16 and 1/2

 

[BrokewrenchLS1]

9/16" deep-well 3/8 drive. All in-house bolts are 3/8-16, so that socket gets used 99% of the time.

At work, 15/16" beryllium socket and 1/2" drive beryllium ratchet. And a beryllium adjustable wrench set to 15/16". btw- beryllium tools ****.

The '55 chevy gets 1/2" and 9/16" deep sockets.

My '95 Yukon and '03 Denali... I don't know. (I don't have to work on them enough to know.) Maybe 10mm?

The motorcycle needs my biggets metric socket - I think it's a 27mm? for the rear axle chain adjustments.

13mm
7,8,10,13,14,15,18

I work on gm cars the most.

Used to be 1 1/8 = Prop shaft nuts on outboards. Now it's a 10mm.

How are they putting props on these days? My dad's boat has an 1-1/8 nut, I don't understand how a 10mm would do they same thing.

 

[kerryt1]

10mm, easily. 9/16 & 1/2 wrenches maybe, but 10mm for socket.

 

[Kev442]

Work: 5.5 & 7mm.
Home: 10,13,15mm pretty equally when on the GM's
and 1/2 and 9/16ths on the older stuff.
Of course, on brakes/rotate day, 19mm

 

[reddog289]

Used to be 7/16 or 1/2. But for me now it's 10mm.

[garboui]

10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, 19mm

+1, gotta love japanese cars, this even makes the leave in car tool bag nice and light

edit: at work its dominated by 5/16" and 7/16", gotta love the mix of 1/4-20 hardware and SMA connectors

 

[AZ_Catskinner]

1¼" deepwell. They really dig the ¾" hard bolts here.

 

[jdl25]

Well it's been covered but I'll put it this way. I never pass up a chance to buy a 10mm anything at a yardsale pending a decent price.

 

[The Frisco Kid]

10mm Snap On 1/4" drive... And it's not even close.

Agreed! I've got several 10mm sockets that I don't even take off of their extensions I use them so much.

 

[mccaer01]

Easily 1/4 drive E10 snapon, second is probably 1/4 drive deep 10mm sk

 

[JMcFly]
