rodney 17 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Draper tends to be a good tool name for the DIY/home use. You gets what you pays for as always Link to post Share on other sites

binliner 0 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 yeah Halfords professional range is good and has a lifetime guarantee Link to post Share on other sites
dellert 0 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Second the Halfords statement, inspect the Draper stuff though, I had a 1/4 Drive socket set and broke it within the week, if your budget will stretch you should give Teng Tools, or Facom a try, both have lifetime warranties, and I have not broken anything yet in five years daily use at work! Lost a few bits, but not broken any! Most likely to break is the Ratchet, so listen for a nice smooth action, and take a bolt with you and try its fit, as poor quality ones tend to be loose and wiggle a bit on the head.Also, for the Plugs, you will need a 3/8 Drive as I struggle to get my 1/2 Drive through the inlet manifold, also make sure they got Plug Sockets with the little rubber bungs, else you going fishing for those plugs!
