Wrench Conversion Handles Any Size Nut
✖ |
Michael Moldenhauer (moldenhauer.michael@yahoo.com): “Recently I had to remove the fan clutch on my 1997 Dodge diesel pickup. The nut is a 36 mm size, but all my bigger wrenches are SAE sizes. A 1 1/4-in. SAE wrench was slightly too small, and a 1 1/2-in. wrench was too big. To solve the problem I tach-welded a piece of steel to one side of the 1 1/2-in. wrench, effectively decreasing the opening to about 1 3/8 in. so that it fit perfectly. After I was done with the job I ground the weld off, so I got my 1 1/2-in. wrench back. I think this idea would work any time a wrench is a little too big for the nut.”
