If you're paying cash, your local dealer will give you better prices than snapon.com. The web prices are full dealer list, more or less, as the dealers would scream if they were undercut too much. S

It's not a standard tamper resistant screw in current use, I don't think. You're unlikely to be able to find a socket or driver from a normal source. An SU specialist might have one. If they don't d

A method I've had good luck with is to weld a nut to the bit of the bolt or stud that sticks out from the surface. The nut gives you a way to put a wrench on it, and the heat of the welding will des
