I always found a brass drift was adequate.....got a 54mm socket from Jafa a few years back tho was superb
lent it to someone...Dad i think, but can't remember
....back to the brass drift now

You can get that sorta thing off sulco. Mate just got a 58mm i think, off them. Maybe even tradezone can source you one.

The SNR ones are good as they are made to suit a 3/8 rathet...if you buy a normal socket it will be 3/4 & almost nobody has that size ratchet or bar.
