My dad has some Pittsburgh sockets that seem to be okay, granted they are 3/4" drive, so they don't get a lot of use. :tup:

I've destroyed several Pittsburgh impact sockets and twisted adapters in two, mainly working on old, rusted POSs that should have been scrapped rather than fixed...:ugh2:

It sucks having to borrow a socket from one of the other guys until I could get to Sears or the crack dealer (Snap-on) shows up. The harassment of 'ya shoulda bought some good tools.... etc.... :bowrofl:

I seem to have the luck of 'crap, I broke this socket... gotta go get a new one. What?!?!?!?! you don't have another one?!?!?!.... 5 stores later..... no Sears store has this socket, gotta go to HF.... 3 trips to HF later, the car is fixed.....:gtfo2:


Now I research to make sure I don't need special tools, (which BTW, the Z requires a special socket for spark plugs), buy the tools, then buy the parts and install them. Much less frustrating.... :tup:


Because I am lazy... what does the Z need specifically?

I didnt notice it was only $100 :icon17:

hahaha, yea. Hence the reasoning. I guess they're a legit business with a lot of Subbie followers in Cali. Stumbled upon them via Ebay.

Hotrodz 04-20-2017 10:44 AM

Right on...do it!

IIRC, it's a 14mm spark plug socket, that is set up different from the usual 9/16" socket (14mm & 9/16", same same), maybe thinner walls, magnetic plug holder instead of rubber sleeve... :confused: I'll post up the part number tonight when I get home. I found the info in a DIY thread here, I just don't remember where... :ugh2:

Three choices:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://store.snapon.com/Retention-S...t-P645027.aspx


First two are relatively inexpensive, the Snap-on one... well, not so much. :p

Thanks! I appreciate the information.
