Tools For The Job

Anyone have a suggestion on a really well-made set of socket adapters? I'm attempting to replace my LCAs, and, given the 14 years of use Blue's been subjected to, those bolts are on there pretty good. I've snapped four 1/4"-3/8" drive socket adapters on my breaker bar while trying to loosen that 17MM bolt.

For a 17mm bolt especially a rusty one I'd be using half inch stuff. Also spray penetrating fluid on them

1/2" breaker bar from HF will do the job. Got to get 1/2" drive stuff to get the suspension stuff off.
