They are 2 quite different products. The 680 has a much higher expansion rate that is not suited for fine finish applications. The 680 will expand too much and possibly cause issues and/or the fine micron high polished surfaces to slip under separation.

You missed my implication of "in a crunch". If for some reason, I was broke down in hostile territory (think New Jersey), and I had 680, I'd use it to get home. If I didn't have anything, I'd use that to get home too lol. How the hell did I end up in Jersey again?

Maybe it's what the last guy used to put mine on, they came off with a little more than light hand pressure. I was really expecting to torque before they popped loose, but they pretty much moved as soon as I got the puller snugged up.
