Just a point of interest: The tool shown is an 8 point socket but is listed as a 6 point.!? Generic illustration I suppose. I am aware that size socket is available in either 6 point or 8 point.
I don't have one, Steve, but there's a good chance I have used one over the years. What are you working on? My guess is a semi or full-floating rear axle on a light truck.
Have you checked the rental places? Probably cost almost as much as buying the tool
You may have to resort to more creative means to do the job if you're determined not to buy the socket.
If I can help, give me a call.
