I bought a set of box end wrenches when I bought my '68 pick-up back in 1973. By sheer good luck and careful tool contol I still have them. But I overtorqued my smallest one, the open end of a 1/4" combo wrench trying to seat some A-I-R Delete plugs in the head of my '68 L6 292. Can I exchange the wrench for a new one from a dealer, or the MFR? Anyone have a contact website for S-K?


Every 25 years I like to rebuild that 292 just for GP

google is your friend - best way to find out is from the dealer!

I would hope they'll help you out. We have quite a bit of S-K stuff in our tool boxes at work (I'm an aircraft mech. in the navy) and they seem to be pretty good quality. Think they've been around a long time as well.

Red-- Thanks, I found a dealer in AZ on your google link.
Mugsy-- I used to be an AV8A avionics tech with VMA-513 back in the day. Even pulled a stint in the tool room. I don't remember any special brand then, some generics (gov't contract). I still have my safety wire pliers.
Brian-- I'll try calling the MFR if all else fails. [My first name is Brian, too.]
