I cant find a 14mm 3/8 drive thin walled anywhere. Even went to all my tool stores and couldnt find anything. I see alot of 12 pointers or do I have a chance to strip the plug accidently.

You can grind down your socket wall with a bench grinder. Doesn't take long or in need of high skills. SPLINED sockets work as well. Instead of 6 points or 12 point contact faces, they will have splines extending the length of socket. Will work on 6 or 12 point bolt. Your local Auto parts should have those. It's low torque, so you shouldn't strip even with 12 point. Antiseize is a must. Don't need a lot. |
