Hi Gene,

I bought the SK impact sockets, and they are fine quality tools
like the rest of the SK line. I have seen some of the cheaper
impact sockets, and they tend to be so thick walled (weaker
steel?) that they will not fit on any nut without tremendous
clearance.

I would buy the SK impact sockets again, if I had it to do over.
