When they got stolen from my car, I bought the deluxe set, and like it even better. Rather than turning the corners of the nut, they cam onto the face, meaning: 1. each socket / wrench does both metric and the nearest fraction of an inch 2. you can't strip a nut or bolt head with them 3. you can turn a nut or bolt that's stripped almost round Additionally, I've used (abused) them with cheater bars, and am confident that anything I can get a socket on I can either crack or twist off the bolt (like the head bolt on a Chevy 454--oops). I've pulled engines etc. foreign and domestic, and handed them over on numerous occasions to jobsite crews when regular hex wrenches fail (tool sacrifice--watched guys hang from them and hit them with hammers) with zero failures. There you have it, of all the tools I own, the only ones I'd ever do a commercial for! http://www.mitools.com/ Donald Garrett flyrotarynospam@avamail.net On 06.10.23 07:44:17, Thomas Phy (thomphy@msn.com) wrote: > Hi all, > Does anyone know the size socket needed to remove the flywheel nut on a > Renesis? 2 1/8 " measures tight.
