Anyone know where I can buy one of these? I have been looking all over, ct, sears, etc..... I think,, think that it is a T50, cant remember for sure....

any help would be great

Kevin

 

Darn....I know I have one but your to far away...I got my from either house of tools or prince auto...or was it Canadian tire..one of those three places..

 

I found it...on page 268 of the new prince auto catalog..T-10 to T50..

 

I seen that one too, but it needs to be extra long, those ones are not,,, I dont really know any snap on guys here either

Kevin

 

Is it a t40 or t50?

 

got my set at napa, one set long, one set short. Been a while don't remember the cost, but I am pretty sure you can buy individuals if thats all you want.

 

Can you use an allen wrench on them? If not, I'd zip them off and get some socket head cap screws. Torx are a pain.

 

I just used a small screwdriver torx bit in a 5/16, 1/4" drive socket and extension. Worked Ok.

 

Kevin,

It is at T40. Snap-On part ftxl40e. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....store&tool=all
This particular one is 4 1/4 inches long to meke the job easy. Mine were siezed in there bad and I ended up stripping out 2 of the bolts anyways and ended up using a grinder, and dremel tool to buzz off the bolt head. Like Tate said, do yourself a favor and replace the bolts with normal bolts! Metric threads, just not sure of the threads. Northern Metalic here had them. Now I can easily take my front drive shaft off anywhere!!

 

The snap on is worth the money, they put locktite on the threads and they also seize in lots. I got tiered of beaking my bit so I put heat to them every time and they come out easy. It doesn't take much heat a propane torch should do the trick. If your really stuck just take a t40 bit and use a 1/4 wrench to turn it and heat.

 

I was in a Kmart tonight and they had a set of Lisle's there that went above the T50 size for $32.

 

We don't have Kmart's in Canada

 

We dont get the cool stores here.. lol Kmart Canada went broke..

 

Kevin since your in Ft Mac, try the Mac dealer. He has a store in the south east end of the city. Its called Serediak Sales, 280D Maclennan Cresent, 780-799-9167, its a cool store. Husband/wife run, they also have a truck that goes out. If you know where finning is in town, your pretty close, its a couple streets to the east of them. Snap-on up there sucks as a dealer.

 

I found with my snap-on guy here in town all I said was dodge front drive shaft and he came running with the tool that he sells hundreds of! LOL The part posted above......
