<div dir="ltr">I have both u-joint sockets and wobble extensions. Both have their place, but I tend to use wobble extensions more often -- the swivel sockets sometimes have TOO much movement.

</span>FWIW, the swivel socket used to be readily available at Sears. However, I was looking for a similar socket in 5/16" (to remove the<br>
throttle shaft pivots) and it appears from the web site that Sears no longer stocks the 1/4" drive flex sockets.<br>
<br>
So, I ordered this set from Amazon instead<br>
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000UH2QNM/ref=pe_385040_127745480_TE_item" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000UH2QNM/ref=pe_385040_127745480_TE_item</a><br>
<br>
Ordered it Friday, got it today. It didn't come in the blow-molded case shown on the Amazon site, but instead a plastic rail. I<br>
like the rail better anyway. Here's a photo of what I actually got, from the GearWrench site<br>

I thought the Amazon price was a bit on the high side (although it does include their sudden shipping), until I saw the price on the<br>
GearWrench site!<br>
