I was just looking at stuff at Canadian Tire and saw a wrench set on a shelf a few aisles away from the tool section. 30 piece Gearwrench ratcheting SAE/Metric set, 1/4"-1 1/8" and 6mm-22mm, lifetime warranty. Regular $379.99 on sale for $129.99. I thought it was too good of a deal to pass up. It doesn't have a case or a holder but the bigger individual wrenches are well over $20/piece by themselves. Even says saved $250 on the receipt! One of the small wrenches has a slight bend in it but how often do need 11/32". LoL I couldn't pass it up, the sale ends tomorrow. I'm usually a day late and a dollar short when deals like this come up.
 
My 15mm Gearwrench went through a combine, and came out with a 90 deg bend in it. Put it in the press and flattened it right out. Still works fine.
 
I bought a set of standard 3/8 to 3/4 and metric 8mm to 19mm and a set of each in stubby size 3 years ago at crappy tire for i think $130 total.
I have used only 2 or 3 of these wrenches once or twice since.
Was a waste of money in my books.
 
I needed some more wrenches and I think the
ratcheting will be a real help working on the Cat.
Putting the clutch hub to bevel gear bolts in or
taking the bolts out of the side panels where
there's no room for a socket are a couple places
that come to mind.
 
As with any tool, if used for what it was designed for, most will be fine. I am well pleased with my Gearwrenches. I don't see them being useful for anything bigger than maybe 3/4 inch sizes simply because of the size and torque involved. I would suggest getting two of everything. Many times I need one on the back and the front when working on something. Having the pair makes it nice.

I have used a small cheater on mine and gotten away with it many times. I have had mine for a long time, the first set was given to me as a gift and I had to have more after trying them out.
