Recommend me an extra long combo set

[FriendOfYours]

Longest I can find are Toptul but they are impossible to get

Something Snappy length without the Snappy price would be great. Gotta be as long though

Thanksamuch!

edit

I should have mentioned I already own a full set of long flank drive + and nearly every gearwrench set they sell

Need one for the road bag

I like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Napa-7PC-Fu...96250751?pt=US_Hand_Tools&hash=item5d4b5b917f . Got a craftsman pro 11 and 17 to fill in. I also have some proto and craftsman double boxes for 19mm-26mm.

The armstrong combos are super long.

i have a few assorted CM pro wrenches, they fall "inline" lengthwise pretty much with the SO wrenches i have

I bought the KLUTCH brand of long reach metric combos from Northern tool. unlike the HF set they include the 16 and 18 mm. I am very happy with them. they also have a standard set.

http://www.gearwrench.com/wrenches/...-combination-wrench-set-sae-metric.html?buy=1 should cover everything if you don't mind foreign tools.

I second the gear wrench. China or Tiwain they are great quality for the $$$. You just gotta get past the NOT made in USA part....

I suspect the Gearwrench wrenches posted above aren't exactly what the OP is looking for.

I'm guessing the OP is looking for extra-long combos, not just long-pattern regular wrenches.

I had the Toptul set the OP listed. They were made in Taiwan and quite long. You can see pics here:

They pop up on ebay from time to time, but since they have little presence in the U.S. I would only buy them if they're well below MSRP. Getting any service under the warranty could be difficult or impossible.

The Armstrong extra long is the way to go 10-21 or 3/8-1 as long as cornwell and snap on long patterns but with more sizes others available but not quite as long is stahlwille or gedore for German made I am not sure about Macs offerings but the armstrong are the same as matco extra longs

 

[rsanter]

I have a nice set of used Cornwell long pattern SAE that I could sell

If you actually want to use the full leverage on the open ends Matco or Snap-On FD+. Nothing else comes close. Im not sure if Armstrong (they make Matco) versions have the same Opti-Torque cut-outs on the open ends but if they do then put them up there with Matco.

Other brands I know make extremely long combos are Toptul, Gedore, Cornwell, and MAC however you cant crank down with the open ends to near the extent you can with the Matco or Snap-Ons before the fastener rolls out or rounds.

They look nice. Any measurements?

Armstrong was my first choice after the Toptul

May not be exactly what you're looking for, but that's a lot of real nice wrenches for not a lot of greenbacks...

I don't know of any Chinese made Extra Long combination wrenches on the market. I think you're going to be limited to Armstrong and truck brands.

Craftsman Professional are good for the $$, especially used.

I got those primarily for one wrench to reach deep in my engine bay to back up a nut. Later, I tried to use one to loosen a nut on my rear suspension and they flexed amazingly. I then got it loose with a large Crescent wrench, which didn't flex at all. I don't know exactly why that made that much difference, but it did.
