its funny, i posted them up on a local ctd board that i belong to and those guys pounced after about three minutes after i submitted last night!

honestly im not sure what i would do with them since they are bigger than what i need for automotive. the big stuff i do need i already have in 3/4" drive sockets.

what are they worth?

btw: thats a stock tj drag link in the bottom of the pic..lol!!!

I have no idea on the value, but I scrambled like hell trying to find one to fit the jam nuts for 1 1/4-12 rod ends. I finally found a 10 dollar chinese version that was a sixteenth too small and filed it larger to fit the flats.

Besides, who cares what they fit? They're manly man wrenches and look good just hanging on the wall.

Matt wants them because he has big nuts to play with.

holy crap!
i called around a bit to see what these go for new. (i dont want new price) and i couldnt believe it. the off shore stuff is profanely expensive too. guess i better do some research.

like blaine said they would make a great addition to my wall. or the most expensive wind chime ever....

or i can tack weld the 2 3/8" chinese one to my zj tie rod to bling it up...

For example, the 2" open end wrench is $170 at Napa



Seriously, let me know what you want for them... I DO have big nuts to play with
