'Cheater Pipe' 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Punxsutawney Phil on  Sat Aug 23 11:04 CST 2003 [RELATED]

a.k.a. "handle extender".

I use a sliding "T" handle (Sears, Roebuck and Co.) purchased about a million years ago with a 1/2" drive deep socket and a 3 foot length of pipe (some hardware store that Home Depot put out of business years ago, about $0.50).

If the $0.50 length of pipe isn't good enough to use on an overpriced European Sports Sedan, you can actually BUY these things for $9 now!



I also put a dab of anti-seize on the threads and use a torque wrench when I put things back together.
