Thanks AR thanks to viewers like you I'm finally getting sent promotional products for review I was so excited when they said they would send me this wrench set I really needed it but it it's pretty expensive but worth it. By the way I decide to stop the high pitch voice I got some feedback from another viewer and I realized it's not worth it it was worth a try though stay dry and away from the flash floods
Definitely some good buys, Gearwrench has great stuff

The flex head wrenches with the fixed 0 degree offset head are a great idea. You can break a stubborn bolt loose with the fixed box end and then ratchet it out, saving the ratcheting end from breakage. My only gripe is that they are spline. I wish they were 12 point with corner off loading. Less chance of rounding a bolt head.

Hello m lieserI think that's why they sent me the bolt biter kits I don't see a use for them now but it's amazing how they may come in handy in the future yes I really like the fix trench and the wrestling Ranch the long sturdy handles are the best part 4 extended-reach that's why I requested these specific ranches for review thank you for watching please subscribe if you're not already a subscriber

That is absolutely false. Spline is much much better than 12pt. +20% better exactly. If 6pt was 100% , 12pt would be 50%, and that's backed up by testing, plus Spline can take off almost any faster like square, torx plus, Triangle, whatever... but the real issue with these wrenches is the 120xp with a dual paw are very problematic, I wish they would just make a simple 90T single, so they don't get all off track
Nice wrench but at that price point I think you better off with the icon double box end wrenches and they are life time warranty as well

hey claudio I looked up the icon set online they do have a double end but I like having one end not racheting for tightening bolts. these are also extra long. thanks for watching! please subscribe!!

You heard this boy Andrew he doesnt give a damn about the consequences of anyone's actions. That company could be beating their wife and as long as he got a quality product out of them that he enjoyed the wife beating would never matter. Take your morals somewhere else me and big man Drew live in America and we dont have room for those kinds of things.

@@kurtiscal3msetccdwell618 I'm a little confused at your comment, you are either being sarcastic or saying you enjoying wives be great as well. If it's the latter then you should do just a little research into how we won ww2 then you may gain an appreciation for why having a manufacturing base in your country is important. Just because we've had a relatively peaceful 80 or so years doesn't mean war is to never be again in the future, the near future if we continue in this current path

Those gear wrench ones have rounded every single fastener I have used them on over the last 3 months. I bought them to replace my Icon ones to free up space in my tool box as I had both icon sets and this gear wrench set appeared to do both in one set of wrenches. I am taking them out of my toolbox and putting the Icons back in. You cannot trust a wrench that rounds fasteners off. They have to be dependable.

Well your not supposed to use any gear style wrench for loosening tight bolts. You use a socket for that or an impact wrench. I guess everyone has a different experience with different brands. Most of them are made in the same factories some off brands use cheaper metals. I have found gear wrench to be high quality. My only question is do you work or icon or are u an influencer for their brand???

Yes I have used them for general use but not anything that requires a long reach yet. A while back I replaced the cooling fan on my pt cruiser and this was the wrench set o needed for long flexible reach. I may have another cooking fan to replace soon I'll be sure to make a video on it. Please subscribe of you haven't already! -cheers
Just a quick suggestion. If you’re going to be supplied with a tool for a review you should at least put in a link with the part number and/or a link to a supplier.

@drewsquickfix wait is it labeled as gearwrench and fake or is it listed as something completely different? Cause this is a gear wrench box and it's 58 for a 8 piece 120xp metric set but they aren't the extra long ones which is a problem that's what I wanted

Been experimenting with gearwrench and have found the 90t wrenches are a bit better than the 120xp even tho I believe that's supposed to be their top end line but the spline drive kinda sucks. And they now make some 90t double box flex head wrenches they compete with those mountain wrenches but they are actually 12 point! And I've found that all the gearwrench 90t ratchet wrenches you can find at home depot and similar stores are the lower end wrenches that are short and don't have the anti slip feature on the open end which is kinda disappointing since that's the first set I got when I didn't know any better but oh well now I know.

i am soon to make a video and show how terrible those spline flex wrenches are, first of all it is Not surface drive, meaning the teeh on the wrench ar about 3/16 of an inch before catching the bolt, the 14 mm ,, 17 mm and most of them fit loosely damaging the nut or bolt being removed

@@stephan4490 yes I did notice the China wrenches had several different names it was just a hassle dealing with the eBay seller I had to open a case with eBay because the seller would not send me a return shipping label and package. My wrenches showed up in heat wrap Saran Wrap with no protection I believe that's why they were broken. thank you for clarifying the auto spell correct I was like what are u saying. I still think going to brand names like gearwrench it's worthwhile they've been very kind to me at the KZread channel owner thanks for watching
A year later I am sorry to tell you that gear wrench like the other brands is made in the same country CHINA that manufactures all that garbage that they sell here in our beloved Yankee empire.

Well I know this but the generic china wrenches with no real name seem to break pretty easy and even arrived defective I had to open an eBay case against manufacturer. At least gear wrench stands behind their wrenches
