What he is looking for is the clutch head screwdriver / cluth head socket too take out the recessed bolts that hold the bed together. He has tried mac and snap on tools /sears and a variety of auto parts stores.some of them can get a 4 pack set but they dont go big enough. He says gm stopped using that style head on thier bolts some time in the early fifties. I told him somebody on this site would know where to purchase what he looking for. Or maybe sell him a used or extra one that they have. We know we cant purchase one here in the north east. Thanks in advance. Lou. H. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | Cut and pasted from this thread: https://www.stovebolt.com/ubbthread...g&topic=0&Search=true#Post350137You can get just the bits, with 1/4" hex to use in an insert type screw driver, from McMaster Carr. http://www.mcmaster.com/ All 5 sizes for less than $6 total. part numbers for the short ones: 7188A31 7188A21 7188A23 7188A24 7188A32 longer ones available, look at the page mentioned above. I have one of the Snap-on ratcheting screw drivers, and these bits work great with that. If you want the best you can get go for the Snap-On clutch head screwdriver set. I have used some and they are very nice. Grigg | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | I could not find the snap-on screwdriver set either.. less than a year or two ago they still had them available, because I priced a set off the truck. With luck your dealer can look and see if there is a set sitting in stock somewhere else and get them for you. Snap-On does offer these: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/tools.asp?tool=all&Group_ID=161&store=snapon-storeFew months ago I found a really old Snap-On set at a swap meet, from the 30's I am told. Keep your eyes open, you'll find some. Grigg | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 75 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 75 | Thanks everyone. I will pass this on. ( UPDATE ) Mcmaster Carr.s page is now 2773. I also found them in Graingers book.page 3035. It is just like Mcmaster Carr. THANKS again I told my son someone on this board would know and help. | | |
