cowie Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Anyone recommend any decent sets at not silly prices? cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightRacer Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Of all places, halfords actually do a decent socket set, certainly good enough for the home car enthusiast. My halfords set is about 5 years old and still without a breakage. I believe their PRO set also comes with lifetime warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rothers2901 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 There are quite a few good sets out there now including the Halfords own. Snap On, Mac if yor feeling flush or a good alternative would be Teng Tools. Iv'e had a socket and screw driver set for nearly 20year and still are in greaat condition fully backed by a life time guarantee. yes they have been used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did break one socket but took it back and they just gave me a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowie Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 Thanks for the replies guys, halfords have a half price sale on now so will take advantage of the socket sets, just the torque wrenches seem steep £60-80 or is that about the going rate?

leonk Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Just bought a Halfords 40Nm to 200 torque wrench for £69.00. Very impressed with it for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
