I used the sockets as a diesel mechanic and they hold up professionally for sure at a great price. The cases they come in is why I considered them to begin with.
Love the sockets. I looked at them when I got my last wrench set and there were a lot of bad reviews. I had a hard time justifying the flank drives but every time I use one I’m glad I spent a little more
I have their 3/8" drive semi deep impact sockets in SAE and Metric. They have thinner walls which I actually like and is one of the reasons I bought them and the sets come with various impact extensions and a u joint. They work real well.
Hi my Awesome brother CP, I just got in yesterday my Sunex Master 3/8 drive set and they look very well made. It's my first Sunex purchase. Thank you for helping me and letting me know how good these sockets have very good to you. Now I know they will good to me. 😎
Have the 1/2 and 3/8 impact master sets as well as the 1/4 impact set. I also have their stubby 3/8 and 1/2 air impacts. Was the first impact sets I ever owned. They’ve been great!
I have those stubbies and they are just too wide. They are short big headed wrenches 🔧 that’s fine in open space but when I tried to use them in a tight space they didn’t fit. That 1/4 inch impact master set is really nice! I’m just going to leave them in the case. It’s very compact and easy to carry
I bought one of the 8057 carts online about a year ago. I wasn't disappointed with the quality at all. I was pissed off because they couldn't give the correct dimensions! I asked Sunex and they said the website dimensions were correct. Low and behold they were the shipping dimensions... I was expecting a large cart and got significantly smaller. Impact sockets are great though!
Most of my SAE stuff is Sunnex because I’m 99.9999999% metric. So for the 2-3 times a year I use them it’s fine. I have a friend who uses sunnex impacts daily in a car shop and he’s never broken one in 11 years. Im a fan.
I have some of their stubby and long metric wrenches and for me as a mechanic on the side they’ve held up decent I mostly work in combines and tractors now I can see if you’re using them on a daily basis you might want something better but for me they get the job done.
I still have my sunex 3/8 sae deep impact set from 1981 lol.. And I just bought their screwdriver sets last week (40 years later) damn I'm old! 😂 Great vid
Greetings CP! I have the Sunex 1/4" 12-point, universal magnetic impact metric socket set on order. Mr. Clay from the Koon Trucking channel showed the Matco version last Saturday on the Matco tool truck episode he does. That set was a smaller set up for about $100. I checked the Matco website for a more complete set like the Sunex set I ordered. Whoa Nellie, I cannot justify spending almost twice as much for the Matco set, I know Mr. Clay can, but I cain't! I have read a lot of positive comments about the Sunex impact sockets. I'm looking forward to using them. I had the ICON metric version of those stubby wrenches, but they just sat in tray in the tool box; never used. So, I exchanged them for the ICON 1/2" drive breaker bar; it has held up well for me.
Ya matco is over inflated to be honest those sockets are rebrands of sunex so you made a good decision you should check out the Ko-ken Nut grip sockets i have a video on them they are fantastic and very reasonable
Hey brother, I remember a guy I worked with in the late 80’s who had sunex 1/2 drive deep impact sockets. That was the first time I heard of them! Like everything time and place for all brands
Lol missed this video. Have to go on a CP binge video night ✌️. Thanks for the Suxen review. No complaints. Have 3/8?to 3/4 size impact sockets. Had to warranty a few. Warranty fast too.
Love sun ex tools. Have the impact 3/8 master set. Love them paid $200 for 80 peace set. Thank you tho again cp. take care. Can’t wait for the new video
As a heavy equipment mechanic the only stubby I reccomend to people coming into the field are the sunex stubbys because they go up to 1" and that is a life saver for hydraulic lines but yes the quality is not top notch
Have been using Sunex impact sockets for over 15 years, have not been disappointed at all. Next on my list is the 1/4 master set. I am however also disappointed in the wrench quality.
I got a set of their S wrenches on the way. For as much as I'll use them I'm sure they will be fine. I totally understand buying higher quality on tools ur gonna use often, in fact even my cheap ass has said that a few times 👍
All i was looking for was to see if CP gave the ok to Sunex sockets. I need 3 swivel universals (1/4, 3/8/ & 1/2) & the Sunex look to be non pin type which is what i wanted and very affordable. I only purchase tools that pass the CP test!!! I wish you would have let Henry make an appearance though CP
As a heavy duty diesel mechanic I don't use 1/4" drive often, but when I do I beat the crap out of them with a 4 pound mallet as a diesel mechanic righteously does. 😂 Seriously, I don't exactly remember but I was driving some kind of bushing out and I used a 1/4" drive 1/2" Sunex impact socket. I beat the living crap out of it thinking of socket was going to be completely destroyed and it's perfectly usable still. A little deformed on the drive side but it's still usable. It's one tough little socket. 😂
Hay buddy I was wondering since you have a shit ton of tools would you be willing to sell some of your duplicates to a guy who is going to school and working on cars with what he's learned in class in the side of his house I've been going to yard sales and the flea market to find tools but no luck on good ones and it's hard to not have any money but I know I need to so I can get the work done the right way
I have their impact sockets (my SAE sets), made in Tiawan. They are decent and priced right. The way I am is on imported tools: European, Japanese, Tiawanese. I try to avoid China. I avoid India, they are just not there yet. I hope someday India will make decent value-quality consumer/pro tools. I like to buy from a country that shares at least some of my values. I do like them pin-up carts, I've always been a sucker for cheesecake.
Are you a sales rep? I ve watched your videos very informative. Much respect for your tool knowledge on tool reviews. I do have to question ,what is it you work on?
I was a former mac tools dealer I am now a small shop owner and work on mostly Asian and domestic cars and occasionally a German if I'm feeling foggy lol
Put some elbow grease into a Wright grip combo wrench and then into an ICON . You'll notice 2 big differences . Number 1 ... the open end of the Wright grip DOES NOT SPREAD . number 2 ... the palm of your hand does not hurt wrenching with the Wright Grip . Icon can't say these things . I've no issue with ICON impact sockets (they bounce but they transfer impact very well for it) just got Sunnex 1/4" universal impact set ... they MATCH matco identically .
I used the sockets as a diesel mechanic and they hold up professionally for sure at a great price. The cases they come in is why I considered them to begin with.
I 100% agree. I think they're most known for their impact sockets anyways. My box is full of em and I wouldn't trade them for any other brand.

INSTANTLY subscribed.
I like the stubby wrenches and the sockets use them everyday
For $125 it was hard to pass up the Sunex 3351 3/8 impact set. Have had that a while with no issues.
Most of my SAE stuff is Sunnex because I’m 99.9999999% metric. So for the 2-3 times a year I use them it’s fine.

Well i think you answered all of my questions about the wrenches
Well thats awesome to hear!!

Sunex impact socket at least the 1/4 are the best hands down. Never have issues. Love em

The only sunex I have is that 1/4 8mm 10mm flip socket you showed before, that thing is amazing on these bmws I been buying.

My dad gave me some hand me down sockets when I started and they are a set of 3/8 drive impact sockets sunex he’s had for over 10 years

I heard they made the carts or some carts for Matco
Negative they make them in Jamestown

I haven't used there wrench but I do like their pliers

I love my absolutely love my sunex 3/8 impact swivels metric 10-19 #3657 and my standards 3/8 thru 3/4 #3654
Everything from 1 1/4" - 2 1/4" deep and shallow impact sockets are sunnex. They are great for the money.
Nice bro I don’t have any Sunex tools I’ll have to check them out🛠👌👍🏻

Thanks CP,
Would thia advice also extend to their chrome hand tool sockets?
I've never tried them many better options
@@CPthetooladdict I'm thinking tekton chrome and sunex impact?
Max torque on the swivel 3/8ths is what we want to see, sunex. Not because I want to see a tool break but so I know how hard I can turn them . Thanks
Was about to pull the trigger on some Astro metric swivel sockets but I think I will check out Sunex now.
Thanks CP!
3/8” 80 piece master set owner here!
Me too. Work on diesel. They have held up nice
Carts are amazing for the price. Picked one up last week. Im a diesel tech / welder and i beat on my tools lol
Question what is good setup for a labtop for doing pcm etc updates and repairs on with?
The gaming laptop works for me. I'm not the guy to ask really lol
@@CPthetooladdict ok thank you
How about warranty on sockets?
Pretty good just call and they replace
So what are your thoughts on
Chicago pneumatic impact wrench
Not even on my radar irrelevant tools lol
That’s a horrible thing to say I got the
CP7762
Magnetic impacts. 👌

I love my sunex tools
Hell yeah they are I bought a 1/4" master set and use them everyday
Which impact sockets are better sunex or capri?
I like capri
Hey CP what are those type of lights u have on ur tool box?
Which ones?
I agree about Sunex wrenches. They’re not professional quality by any means.
CP I need to buy some 3/8 impact sockets. Would you buy the SK set over the Sunex?
I'd much rather have the sk for sure but if you can't afford them then yes the sunex is a great socket still.
The Mac expert wobble sockets are identical to Capri or vise versa check out my Instagram pic
They definitely are

@@CPthetooladdict atta boy lol
Not no more now that their made in China.
They already were this isn't news
@@CPthetooladdict never said it was news, just stating facts lol. No idea why you are on the defensive. Who hurt you?
Your manipulation doesn't work on me, beta boy gfy.
