Marck Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Just the other day, I saw a small set of craftsman torx sockets at Sears. Snapon also carries them. Call a snapon truck or buy the one you need online: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?item_ID=14957&group_ID=2358 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffast Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 a standard torx won't work it has to be deep i thought it was a torx to, but it's not. it is a speciality tool it needs to be deep edit: if i had any money at all i'd buy one, that's why i'm asking if any one has one i can borrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKrazy Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Replied to your PM Jeff..and yes I do have one, just did that swap myself on the lifted sedan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 If you use a 9 or 10mm deep 6pt socket 1/4" drive, it will fit over the torx bolt and you can use it to break it loose. I used craftsman and they didn't strip or break. And the bolts were stuck bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Might be okay for taking it apart but for re-torquing I would use the real tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffast Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 that was my thought shawn, i'm gonna try to meet with keith later this week and git-er-done then thanks for the help all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Doesn't need to be a deep socket - just has to be a 1/4" drive E-10 torx. I've got two from Matco that work great and are impact rated. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Jeff, I think you should borrow a dictionary first:grin: I got one but there are people closer to you obviously... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
