Today was a Traumatic day in the shed.

I'm 53.....

Today I lost my 10mm socket. It rolled off the battery and into the abis. I have crawled all over the engine bay. Had it up on the hoist and sticking my fingers into every crevice. Magic! It's gone!!!

Gunna do a GoFundMe page. The Fark!

Hope they find it soon!

Hitting the Panard lower nut with the rattle gun put enough vibration for the GQ to Spit the thing back out at me!!! I have no idea from where but it landed on the floor beside me!!!

Thanks to all for your compassion and understanding except that bloke @Winnie

F@#K me! Are you a wizard or something?

I bought this TOPTUL mini bit ratchet set (GADW2701) from Audel tools in Dandenong South, that I've had my eye on for a while.
Good timing as the guy in store said he has been meaning to update the price from $59 to $89!
Still listed on their website at $59

It'll be good for some screws or fixings that need a bit more leverage as you can set up a T piece or right angle handle using the extension.

I laughed when I read this, as I found a 10mm spanner, a small screw driver and about a dozen nuts and washers in the valley under the manifold when I stripped everything down recently. I am yet to find a 13mm socket though, maybe this is the next generation universal upgrade to the 10mm?????

You can't blame working on the GQ for loosing the 13mm. I bet there isn't a single 13mm nut on the Patrol as Japanese folks are very superstitious and have something against that number. When I replaced the GU engine, all medium sized bolts and nuts were either 12mm or 14mm, which made it quite handy having only two sockets on the pocket.

Well obviously I fucked up a few thousand times using a 13mm spanner then???

Or maybe bolts you replaced. Sometimes you go to to the HW store with a japanese car bolt as a sample, and for the size and thread pitch you want, the head size is different.
