Review: I purchased this set for a number of reasons - the price for the amount of product you're getting is very fair, the prior reviews seemed to indicate that these were tough and could take a beating (I have seen tools like this fail in the past), and it came with a variety of opening sizes. Fast forward a few days and I have two of these wedged in the ball joints of a very rusty 30 year old 1-ton ex-farm truck, pounding on them relentlessly with a 4-lb hammer. While this is the type of work that these were designed for, and thus couldn't be considered abuse, I certainly wasn't being nice to them. Yet, after freeing both the driver and passenger side knuckles, they had little more than some old (nasty) grease stuck firmly on the finish. Some elbow grease and cleaner, and they look just about new still (save for some marring on the hammer-side). The smaller fork was also used to remove my tie rods on both sides with similar results... worth noting that I attempted both pounding on the knuckle, and on the threaded rod with the same 4-lb hammer without it budging before easily removing it with this fork. Very happy with this purchase, and proud to have these in my tool collection.
