Lisle Tools = CRAP!

[sciroccos at earthlink.net (Jim Ruffi)]

The Snap-On one gets my vote.  They've never failed me.
As an aside, I'm borrowing a Hazet exhaust spring clamp tool from a friend
tonight....I wish I owned one, but they're at least $100.
Does anyone have a cheaper alternative or a trick to install these clamps
without knocking one's teeth out?

I had a brand new set of Lisle 12 point, Triple Square tools for removing
the CV bolts. Well I got them all out and almost all of them back in before
the tool failed taking with it the bolts. The sereated edges just started
shearing off. What a piece of crap and it is sad to say made in the USA. I
am picking up a Snap On one this afternoon although MATCO makes a nice one
(borrowed from a friend) but I can't find anyone it get it from. I'm on the
look out for a MATCO truck.
