Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt Standard (SAE) 5/8-in Deep Socket

Used to remove a spark plug that could not be reached with a normal spark plug socket.

it help with the problem i had

For the plug, I would have bought a 6-point if there was one. (That's why I gave a "good" for design) Even in light of this, I rate it excellent, because if it were repackaged to be pr...
