Message	the only real issue is that with the design accommodating both metric and inch fasteners there is a lot of play between the socket and the fastener. This makes it problematic in tight areas where you can't get much swing of the ratchet anyway, and all the swing you do get is taken up with the slop between the socket and fastener. Other than that, I did a LOT of work on my Z with the set and never broke anything. Mike --------------------------------------------------------
