    Excellent video. Spent an hour trying to remove couple rounded bolts from a 4runner skid plate to get to the oil filter. Watched your video, went to Harbor Freight and picked up a bolt extractor set..... job done in a couple minutes. Thank you!

    SnapOn also makes the best Fitting wrenches for working on hydraulic, fuel, etc.lines. Have cracked loose the most stubborn fittings using this brand and never rounded a fitting. The high price is a factor but is outweighed by time saved..not to mention knuckles. Good vid on your "spiral friends". Best to you and yours.

    Great Video is very honest and real! Living in Ontario We encounter rusted fasteners all the time Some of them have never been touched but are completely eroded away! A video suggestion for you would be to build on this content with a video on all the options for rusted fasteners especially exhaust. We have accumulated a great collection we have the twist sockets shallow and deep up to 1/2 dr a shorty craftsman socket set that works in confined space, a set of twist wrenches, and fit it goes sideways left-hand drills, Alden drill outs, and regular extractors Your right about the comment about forgetting about them until you need it and we made these a shop purchase so we could buy them all. Like you, even with shop purchases, we are very careful to get the best tool for the money and don't shop on the truck very often However your comment about replacing dull sockets on warranty got my attention! Sorry to make this so long I really enjoy your work and am new to your channel keep up the good work! Thanks, Ps Those induction bolt heaters look very effective still need the twist sockets but why not get them ready to come out if you can! On our never-ending list of tools to buy! Thanks Jeff

    Hi Jesse at GearHeads: Thanks so much for the very useful and informative instructional video on using a twist socket set. Last night I went to replace the mower blades on a pre-owned John Deere L100 lawn tractor. Two blades utilizing four bolts. With a little effort the first blade came off, but the two bolts holding the second blade will not budge, even when I sprayed in white-lithium grease. Then one of the bolts started rounding off. So tomorrow, Saturday, I'm headed to a local tool store to buy me a twist socket set. Again, thanks for sharing your know-how and experience with us amateur mechanics. Jeff in rural Aylett, Virginia.

    I have a propane tank that is leaking around the capacity gauge. The 4 screws holding it in are seized or rusted. They are made to use only a flat screwdriver to turn them. I have used PB blaster on them and Kroil oil. Still not budging as it may not be finding its way up under the screw well enough.
    Found where I might can heat them one at a time with a soldering iron---can't use any other type of heat with it leaking right there. Haven't tried that yet.
    So in desperation I will try this technique....see if they get even the tiniest bite and can slowly start turning them out of there. Never heard of these and just happen to run across your video. What a great thing. Jesus bless.
    Any other suggestions from you or anyone else is welcome. Thanks.

    So I used a set like this to get some stripped lugs off of my Wrangler...worked great, only problem is with the last two lugs. I used the provided punch tool to remove the nut from the socket, and it got lodged in the nut. I was able to get it off the socket, and removed the last stripped lug. Tried the other end of the punch tool to remove the nut from the socket, and THAT end got lodged. So now I have what looks like a stripped lug, with a punched lodged into it, followed by the 3/4" socket, and the other lug nut on that end. It's one big mess and I have no idea how to dislodge the nuts from the punch tool lol.

  • @FrankBlackcrow
    @FrankBlackcrow 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I just ordered a set that has a hex on the outside for a spanner, and these ones are a lot shorter, so they look more like a nut going on to a nut, for me these looked good for a tight space, where I don't have a lot of wiggle room from above, but I have room in the left and right direction to use a spanner.
    If I had to buy the longer type that fit a socket wrench, I would have to remove a lot of the other stuff that is in the way, making the job a lot longer.. as like removing the water pump off the motorcycle I'm working on, and then having to drain the coolant, and then the reverse of that with as well sealing up the water pump.. that's just too messy... I think the water pump being in the way was why it got rounded off in the first place.. by the other owner, or of who owned before it was sold to me, of my now second hand motorcycle.

      You need an impact gun señorita! Plus if its that bad it sounds more likely it was crossthreaded or damaged from so much use vs just being overtightened. I have had ones like that happen when I know I was the last one to tighten them, a piece of hardware only has so much use!
      Just get it apart and replace the stud and lug and you should be good 👍

      Luckily I dont need to pull them out very often. Probably only once every month or two, but everytime I need one and it works I feel like it was worth the purchase all over again. It has saved so many hours.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but you use the size same size extractor as the stripped bolt?

    • @GearHeadsGarageChannel
      @GearHeadsGarageChannel  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The extractors are labeled for the size of stripped heads they should be able to grab onto yes. Sometimes I'll go a size down if one is really bad or damaged.

    If the original size of an oil drain plug was 10 mm, and got rounded off, what size extractor head would you use? Is there a size 9 or 8 mm?

    I have a damaged nut holding on my front brake caliper it was rounded too much for the right sized socket to fit and too much material for the next smallest one. Dremeled the nut down to size, hammered socket on and it just fell off, stripped of and couldn't bite deep enough to hold on.

    It's good you gave the item code because the link in your description doesn't go there. Also, $358 is a lot of money!
