Will a six point strip out the 12 point torex bolts for the CV joints (it only takes 30 lbs....)
Or should I go buy this difficult to find torex? Anyone got a link? |

Snap On
Why f- around? I've spent almost as much on Snap On tools as I have on parts for my restoration, but I'll have the tools for the next one, and the next one, and the next one......
