Check out Harbor Freight. I was able to get a 3/4" drive set with
ratchet, sockets, and breaker bar, for a very reasonable price. The set
is adequate, but obviously no where near Proto quality.
No need to go to 3/4" drive. I have a Blackhawk 1/2" drive 1-5/16" socket
- which also fits the engine crank pulley bolt. Don't recall the cost but
it wasn't particularly remarkable. ' Hope they're still available.
