I may regret this but here goes. It appears that there is a lack availability of this socket. I have found a source so if anyone wants them I will organise it. I will have to get a firm price but I suspect it will be in the $15 bracket. These are a good quality socket not rubbish.

Dont see too many with 1/2" drives, mainly 3/4.

Ive got 2 of em in my.... garage ....but we'll call it a rumpus room. Its where I keep my toys.

One of em came in this set off ebay. Contains a heap of 3/4 inch drive up to 2 inches in size, with the wrenches to drive em. Includes the socket for doing mini steering wheel nuts, driveshaft end nuts, and the flywheel bolt.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=20774&item=4369700358


The other, a black IMPACT socket, is the better one of course, but it cost a fair bit more.

Well, that's a rip off. The ones I have gotten have been cheaper than that.
