This is pretty neat. Haven't seen it before, just stumbled on it:

crows foot wrenches
Just bought a set (3/8" drive)from Lowes for $40. Good compromise between Harbor Freight and Sears (especially for the amount they will get used.)

torque adapters
Torque adapters are another solution that I've found really useful in a lot of situations. They're basically 2" long versions of the crows foot with a fairly thin profile. Available from Snap-on, Matco, and a few other sources (search on ebay, etc.). Here's a link to the snap-on set

Very useful info

Thanks John :) |
To bring this thread full circle at least in my case. First: Thanks everyone for the great ideas and links they will be invaluable when it comes time to use the crows foot.
After thinking about the location a bit more and getting a great pointer from someone building a 14 (thanks "E"!) it turns out that you can 'shove' the torque wrench behind the skin which avoids the need for the crows foot. I had not thought of that because it is a tight fit and was not clear right away at least to me. |
