A 7.5 will snap off a lot easier when one tries to leverage a vice grip on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not on my Silverado, then it is the odd ball socket that I had to buy separately for my S-10 trucks & Blazers. I know the 18mm did not come in any of my sets.

SpecialEducation Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 18mm is actually very common on GM suspensions, but whoever puts wrench & socket sets together obviously doesn't work on GM stuff. I even have 18mm combo wrenches and sockets that have the face ground flat for those low profile torque converter bolts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Dave Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Most sets I have noticed 15-17-19. 16 or 18 not included. Dandy Dave! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
