TRNW-2: New BMW bolt

Sun Dec 21 03:33:47 PST 2025

 Probably won't be a big deal. Amazon and Ebay will probably be flooded with sockets if you know what to look for. Which is part of why we no longer have a Snap On man.  About 6 months ago ours hung it up.  And I will be really surprised if we see another one.  Sad but just a sign of the times.
 You can usually find usable tools such as this faster and cheaper on the internet than  a tool truck.  Just as sadly parts are going that way in a hurry as well. But in my area the parts people have brought it on their selves with (I don't have it) instead of (let me see if I can find one).
