Here’s what the whole set looks like. If the fastener is M6 or smaller, this tool is incredibly handy.
It slides right into even the tightest spaces.

Even M8 exhaust pipe nuts come off easily. It really is all about having the right equipment.

When disassembled, it looks like this.
\u2022 Extension
\u2022 Ratchet
\u2022 T-handle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The extension is about 250 mm long.
Koken 1\/4 (6.35 mm) SQ. Extension Bar 250 mm Overall Length 2760-250 <\/a>
You could go with 200 mm if you prefer, and it’s perfect to have other sizes smaller than that as well.
Koken really is the best. I would definitely have chosen this back then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a slide T-handle.
A length that fits in your palm is easier to use. Since you won’t be applying heavy torque with this, I think keeping it minimal is better.

Tone (TONE) T-Type Slide Handle (Center Lock Type) 6.35 mm (1\/4\u2033) Drive HPSL20 <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

KTC 6.3 mm (1\/4 inch) Slide Head Handle BHM2 <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Already spoiled for choice with just handles? Made in Japan <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, the ratchet <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Koken 1\/4 (6.35 mm) SQ. Ratchet Adapter 2755 <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Snap-On is 20-tooth, but this one is 44-tooth…
That’s more than twice as fine. Amazing! I think this is the only choice you need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Whoever came up with this was brilliant! It’s an incredibly useful tool.
They come in 6-point and 12-point, but since you’re using it with a ratchet, 6-point is fine.
*I use the 6-point version. You can also slip heat-shrink tubing over it to restrict movement! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Koken 1\/4 (6.35 mm) SQ. 6-Point Universal Socket 8 mm 2440M-8 <\/a>
Koken 1\/4 (6.35 mm) SQ. 6-Point Universal Socket 10 mm 2440M-10 <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just having 1\/4 will dramatically improve your work efficiency…
You might wonder why you were using 3\/8 so much.
For your reference, \u03c6(..)Memo memo
