Anybody know where I can get hold of a 27mm / 1&1/16th" wheelbrace?
Machinemart and Halfords don't stock them any larger than 23mm, according to their websites :(
Cheers.
Jack.
Edit: The Alltools website is about as much use as a chocolate teapot, seems to only want to show me the powertool stocklist! Do they only sell powertools? If so, why is it called 'Alltools'?
if your stuck use a socket with a strong universal bar on it,cheers.......
There used to be a place just off Attercliffe Common, on Retford Rd opposite the Koh i Noor, sorry I cant remember it's name, or there's the iron mongers on Staniforth Rd at the side of the canal bridge.
Alltools has many tools...
For some reason i also have a trade discount card for them. Must be a bloke thing.
alternatively, search google (http://www.ab-landrover-parts.co.uk/acatalog/Accessories.html)
Get yer self down Attercliffe. There is a great engineering supllies shop that is bound to have one. As your passing the end of Staniforth rd heading out of the City its on your left about a hundred yards on. There's even a car park right outside..

It's called Alltools because it sells all tools

The link you posted is for autotools.co.uk though. Not alltools?! :confused:
Anyway, cheers forumsters. :thumbsup:
Ill get to Alltools and have a look.
Daevh, ill borrow that card if that's okay. FAR more valuable than those stupid Yellow Cards... infact, come with me, we can indulge in our mechanical obssessions for a couple of hours!
HJ - I presume you don't mean Alltools? I'll have to have a buzz round during lunch - I work around that area.
PS: as a quick fix I ended up using a large breaker bar with a 27mil impact socket. Not ideal, but did the job
Yeh sure, i probably 'need' some stuff...
In fact, that link i gave you wasn't actually to Google, it was to a shop selling the wheelbrace online.
