    Hell yea! I bought a set of metric service wrenches (thinner than a regular open-end) when I started doing front suspension work on the Tacoma. They really come in handy getting into tight places on the 100 series. I don't know how I got by for years without them.

    I've got thin ratchet wrenches that also have the box end. I like those for suspension, especially the top nut on the rear shocks.

    Nothing worse though than getting wedged in as you loosen the nut when using the ratcheted side.

    I found out about service wrenches about 8 years ago and instantly fell in love. Bought a cheapo set from HF that have worked well enough although now the heads are starting to splay open and what was once 1.25 inches is closer to 1.375 :rofl:


    If these ATD brand work out well enough I'll probably get a service wrench set from them as well since one of our vendors is a direct importer and gives awesome pricing
