- Is this set enough for basic car maintenance?
- Yes for oil changes, brakes, battery terminals and interior work. It lacks a 1/2 in. drive and large sockets, so suspension and lug-nut jobs need a bigger set.
- Does it cover both metric and SAE?
- Yes. Sockets come in both metric and SAE sizes, so it handles imported and domestic vehicles and household hardware.
- What is included besides sockets?
- Two ratchets (1/4 in. and 3/8 in.), extensions, a universal joint, adapters and a driver bit selection, all in a molded case.
- How does it compare with a 1/2 in. drive set?
- This set is more portable and covers small to mid-size fasteners. A 1/2 in. drive set adds leverage and large sockets for suspension, axle and lug-nut work.
- Is it covered by a warranty?
- Craftsman hand tools such as ratchets and sockets carry a lifetime warranty. Keep the receipt and check the terms on the packaging.
- Who is it not for?
- Professional mechanics and anyone doing heavy suspension, engine-mount or lug-nut work will want a larger set with a 1/2 in. drive and deep sockets.
