GearWrench 80879 3/4-Inch Drive 12 Point Socket Set, 13-Piece

It is $400 at Home Depot, and $215 at JB Tools... I paid $87.89 at the above Amazon link...

Yes, they are twelve point regular shallow sockets, but includes a ratchet and extension... Good thing, GearWrench has a lifetime warranty everywhere, see AutoZone... All of that FOR $87? A no brainer in my book! There are a few sets left! Go get em!

$79.00 + $8.00 shipping... Again, a no brainer.

Ever need a 1-7/16 socket? I have, and go try and find one of those at ACE Hardware... If you CAN find one, it will cost you $30+. Enough said. Just trying to help... Do NOT pass this up. ;-)

12-point -- yuck. especially if it is 3/4". -- just my thoughs on it, but then again, it may get someone out of a bind for cheap.

I use 12 pt for 12 pt bolts and nuts only. Too easy to round a fastener with one.

However that ratchet isn't bad. I carry a 3/4 ratchet, a cheapie impact socket set in 6 pt and a second hand snap on 3/4 torque wrench I had recalibrated under my bunk, with a cheater pipe, pneumatic/hydraulic bottle jack, skid plate, 3/4 impact and jackstand...and a spare in back. All of it paid for itself the first flat I had...

I set up my rig to provide compressed air on the side of the road for power tools. It also saved my ass in MD when I stalled outside of DC with all of my fuel in the passenger tank...I used the air to push the fuel back over to the driver's tank until I got it to fire up so I could head to the nearest truck stop to fix it...damn fuel crossover valves.

If you get a 3/4 ratchet, a cheater pipe and 3" extension will allow you to bar the engine if needed too.
