this same combination is also exactly what you need for a TR6

Subject: [TR] TR3 Fuel Pump

Listers,

Like someone else on this list, I recollected that reaching that =
rearward nut on the TR3 fuel pump was something I'd been doing for a =
long time w/o any problem. So, after raising the bonnet to attach the =
charger ( I had forgotten to disconnect the battery last October), I =
decided to see if my method of reaching that nut was a simple as I =
remembered it to be. It was. Using a Craftsman 1/4" drive ratchet with a =
3" extension and the 1/2" socket, I was able to loosen that nut and =
retighten it, all in less than 30 seconds. My car is a '60 TR3 with all =
the parts in place. And that's why I carry this wrench and fittings =
along with a replacement pump as part of my long trip spares.

There are lots of ways to attack this nut, and the "Justin Wagner set-up"
has been referenced a couple of times in this thread. Since his website is
no longer active I thought I would attach a picture he posted on it some
time ago.  Justin recommended it for the TR4, but it will work fine for the
entire TR2-6 range.

those are pretty nice.  even better - it’s a tool I don't have.  its very
hard to go tool shopping these days and actually want something; I've been
collecting tools for 40+ years.

btw - some years ago I saw a socket wrench that didn't click - it was a 
continuous thing so you turn just a little tiny bit then back up and repeat. 
it was about $100, but it’s a tool I still lust after.  has anyone seen that 
around anywhere?

FWIW, the swivel socket used to be readily available at Sears.  However, I
was looking for a similar socket in 5/16" (to remove the
throttle shaft pivots) and it appears from the web site that Sears no longer
stocks the 1/4" drive flex sockets.

So, I ordered this set from Amazon instead
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000UH2QNM/ref=pe_385040_127745480_TE_item

Ordered it Friday, got it today.  It didn't come in the blow-molded case
shown on the Amazon site, but instead a plastic rail.  I
like the rail better anyway.  Here's a photo of what I actually got, from
the GearWrench site
http://tinyurl.com/l6dop5g

I thought the Amazon price was a bit on the high side (although it does
include their sudden shipping), until I saw the price on the
GearWrench site!

I have both u-joint sockets and wobble extensions.  Both have their place,
but I tend to use wobble extensions more often -- the swivel sockets
sometimes have TOO much movement.  Wobble extensions are available from a
number of sources.  If anyone hasn't tried them yet, it's definitely worth
getting one to test.  I use 'em all the time.

Snap-on (and probably others) make a wobble extension that can also
function as a fixed extension by pushing the socket down firmly to seat
it.  Those aren't as nice, IMO, 'cause the socket will get locked sometimes
when you want it to wobble.

Don

PS:  The Tooltopia site noted by Dave is a good source for all kinds of
things.

<br>
Ordered it Friday, got it today.=C2=A0 It didn&#39;t come in the blow-molde=
d case shown on the Amazon site, but instead a plastic rail.=C2=A0 I<br>
like the rail better anyway.=C2=A0 Here&#39;s a photo of what I actually go=
t, from the GearWrench site<br>

I thought the Amazon price was a bit on the high side (although it does inc=
lude their sudden shipping), until I saw the price on the<br>
GearWrench site!<br>
