Irwin 5-pc BOLT-GRIP Expansion Set

For everyone who has struggled with stubborn and stripped nuts and bolts, this is the answer to your prayers! I was removing my H-pipe from my '98 Mustang GT when I came across this stubborn nut that was in a difficult place to reach. I had no luck with blaster PB, and stripped the nut using a deep socket. I heard about the Irwin bolt grip sockets, and bought the original set, only to find that the size I wanted was in the expansion set. This is my only complaint, that this product is sold in two sets. Still, I reccomend purchasing both sets because it is WELL WORTH THE PRICE! The socket held on tight to the STRIPPED nut and finally got it loose! And the socket still looks brand new, no damage at all, and I used my legs to provide the force! Both sets come with a wide range of sizes, perfect for any job that is unneccesarily difficult.

Well for one, these are not pliers! Really dont understand the name/title/description (whatever). It does grab the nut but had no luck getting the lug nut off the wheel. It accepts a 3/8" socket wrench. TOO SMALL. I broke 3 - 1/2" to 3/8" adapters before I said screw it and went to a tire shop and had them get the stripped over torqued lug nut off my wheel. This may work for a stripped nut as long as it isn't on too tight.
