Bought a set of sockets at sears today and for 50 bucks for 71 pieces you cant beat it. Its hard to describe but its not a traditional ratchet the sockets fit in the hole in the ratchet. Anyone else use these? I tired them up messing around on the truck a little bit today and they seem to work well. Im pleased for the price i was just curious on what yall thought of these long term!

Are you talking about the ones that have the access hole through the socket that allows the bolt to stick through so you don't have use a deep well socket to work on the nut side of the fastener? If so nope have not tried them but have never ran into a situation here at work or at home where I would need them, so I can't comment on how well they hold up to pouring the power to them.

yep those are it. in the accses hole they have an insert to use a regular socket. i tried torqing pretty hard on it and it seemed to fair well. they have a life long warranty so i guess i cant complain.

Can you use these with a regular ratchet? I'm not sure I've ever seen these. I'll have to get out the tool catalog and see what they look like. NAPA came out with some new type of set up last year too. You couldn't use a regular ratchet with it though.
