Gear Wrench Quadbox wrenches were sold a couple of Christmases ago
for  $10 a pair at the local NAPA store. Sears wants $30 for the pair
even now.  YOu got your choice ofmetric or american and the metric
had an 8/10 and 12/13  on one wrench and a 15/16 and 17/19 on the
other.  I Like em because they will hold a nut, unlike the individual
wrench where the nut will slide through.  I don't like their rigid
straight on heads, but for $10?  I bought a 10 mm flex head for the
Subaru valve covers(indispensable tool for that, especially the
driver's side), but now I see they have a flex head that locks in
place at various angles.  Gotta keep us spending our money each year
doncha know!!
