One socket fits all / gatorgrip

[Jeff Gilbert]

I can't remember what they are called, I think it may be gator-grip. It's one of those sockets with the needlg bearing looking things in it that is supposed to fit almost anything.

My question is has anyone used one before?
I've got to loosen the bleeders on the brakes on my RV and the box end wrench slips and is beginning to strip out the nut. I'm hoping one of these will work.

Heh yes I have one and believe it or not it works pretty good. We have a go-cart racing team and one of the racers in a Top Alcohol dragster driver and he is VERY picky when it comes to tools on his car. One day he saw our "Robotic Socket" and just laughed then he used it and loved it. He bought one for himself. It's not good for everything but I think it was worth the 9 bucks ;)
I hope it will work for you, last time I checked there was a guy with 1000 of them on ebay for 4.99 each:cool:

Man, that was a fast response

I think I'll be heading to Harbor Freight today & pick one up. I really need to get the brakes fixed on the RV today, the emergency brake quit working too so it probably wouldn't be a good idea to chance it.
