Full set of Britool a/f and whitworth with all the accessories for Ā£60 +Ā£20 postage. Thereā€™s a few strap-on bits in there too. Iā€™m hunting a set of metric sockets to replace the whitworth though

If you look at the snap on bits there is a little symbol near the part number that tells you what year it was made, can be a right bugger to see though.

Has a look at the 18ā€ breaker bar but can only see -

snap-on SN-18A Canada

Itā€™s in good condition though
 
From the snap on website, slightly different part nos, but gives you an idea on prices.
Rough rule I always work on with used Snap On gear is fair used condition is roughly half of its new off the van price, which is normally cheaper than the prices listed on their website, not massively cheaper though unless its on offer.

So the breaker bar is worth more than I paid for the whole box šŸ˜Š. Will look out the other bits at some point
 
Afternoon all, I've got some very rusted wheel nuts to tackle on a 91 reg Defender, followed by an attempt on a (rusted) re-chassis... I've got a high torque impact driver, and am looking to buy some impact sockets, but am wondering if I need to buy a "whole set", or whether I can pick and choose / there are only 4 or 5 that I'll need.....?

Also, I'm wondering if there's a certain brand that people recommend, or are the all pretty much of a muchness?

Any advice appreciated.
Thanks.
Hereā€™s some advice bossā€¦enjoy the rebuild šŸ˜Ž

Many years ago I bought a very old Snap on breaker bar from a car boot sale for 2 quid! Knuckle was missing but amazingly the current ones still fitted it, Snap On van man reckoned it was circa WW2 era, still use it most days.
