Cheers Tony. I will make one to your specifications.

Hi again Tony. As I have the forks and dampers fitted to save me taking one out. Can you give me an internal measurement of the squashed sides please.

Cheers Mike

Cheers Tony, I’ll get one from Halfords on way home from visiting mum in hospital.

Halfords is too good, a cheap chinese socket is what you need

Hi Tony , as you say the Halfords socket was too good to destroy, I put it in my tool chest for save keeping.
Popped along to my local car boot today and purchased two 14mm sockets to butcher and squash and
a 12mm socket to make into a claw. 50p each both look cheap and Chinese made.

All the best Mike

Thanks again for your help. Mike
