SERVICE INFORMATION
Snap-on(R) Tools has recently released the Zero Clearance Socket Set, #2007TZC, especially designed for those easy-to-round-off "low-profile" trans and drive train locknuts. These impact sockets are designed with "zero clearance" (no countersink on the working end) and feature Flank Drive(R) broaching for maximum flat-to-flat contact.
The set includes: 17 mm and 22 mm 12-point sockets, and 18 mm, 19 mm, 21 mm, and 30 mm 6-point sockets. Also included is a unique shouldered staking punch with one flat side to hug the flat of the nut. See Fig 1 .
Your local Snap-on(R) representative can "set" you up.
