I need a 11/16 thin wall socket.
not at sears
not at autozone
not at napa

where?

are impact sockets thin walled?

thanks.
 
Seeing that it is only for the transmission plug you could try grinding down a cheap ring spanner . You could then cut the other end off and slip or weld a piece of pipe on for extra leverage .
Can't understand why some men tighten these plugs up so tightly, you would think they were trying to keep the Devil himself trapped behind it !
I use an antique German ring spanner for mine , I am constantly amazed at how slender ,and yet tough it is .
 
Could try Snap-on but would be expensive! Best bet cheep socket and grind down the wall then keep just for that job. I have done that many times.

if I was still working I would do that. guys in the machine shop where I worked could make anything.

all I have here is a six inch bench grinder. I may have to sacrifice a socket.
 
when I bought the NAPA socket the guy measured the thickness at 3mm so I guess I need something thinner.
 
Where you located? If your not in a hurry I'll turn one down in my lathe and send it to you. Is that a six point plug or square?

six pt. plug.

I have three sockets the size I need. I will try grinding one and if that does not work I will take you up on your offer.

thanks,
steve.
 
Measure the diameter you need if you can.
Don't they put those plug in some of the darndest places!!! I'd bet the engineer that put it there never had to take it out :D
 
By the way, what plug are you trying to get out. Is it on a Fergie? I've got a 20, 30, mf35, and a 40, so if it's one of those I could figure out what you need.

Mines a 1961 so they gotta be the same. It's out to my friends house in the country and and I'll have to go out there to see what it it looks like.
