Wrenches/spanners wanted
Ivanhoe Wed Feb 15, 2012 11:49 am
I'm looking for a few small, US-sized wrenches/spanners to use on American engines up to .61 size. I need 3 or 4 sizes below about 1/4" or so to fit things like spraybar nuts etc. UK and Metric won't fit older US engines.
I'd prefer open-ended or ring but I'd take 1/4" drive sockets.
I've searched US EBay and the suppliers with what I want won't ship outside the US(!)
Any offers, with prices and shipping costs much appreciated.

Wilf:
I believe that you might need a set of Sears Craftsman SAE (Society of Automotive Enginners) mini-ignition wrenches that are "box" one one end and "open" on the other. I keep a set in my flight bag
They range from 15/64" to 3/8". If you have a US contact perhaps they could get them for you.

Here is a set of nut drivers Wilf that have a few of the popular sizes.

Here is a litle bit tougher machined set with big grip no-roll handles, replaceable tips. Currently OOS, but Kendall usually gets those back in quick.

If you paruse the tool selection, there is a nice set of aluminum long handle open end wrenches, and other bits and pieces that might interest you. the aluminim is more forgiving and less likely to marr surfaces or round off critical nuts and such. Hudy/Xray tools out of Slovakia are a very good quality tool, I have many of those. They mostly carry nut drivers in the US/standard sizes. Spendy, but they are the Snap-on of hobby tools.
A-main does ship internationally, maybe shoot Kendall and crew a email and see what they can come up with for you.
