Most Helpful Review:
I bought this 1/2in. drive universal joint for work, had it for about 2 years till the small ball bearing fell out that holds the sockets. Probably from to much use. I use it every day, about (4-6) hours a day. It's worked great no problems till the ball bearing fell out. Other then that it still works. I had to order 2 more online, really don't have time to go and exchange it since it is a craftsman product. When I get a change I will do an exchange. Just easier to order online for me, for work. Great product!!!!

Must have accessory
|Great to get into those tight areas where impact gun or ratchet doesn't quite fit in. Pinless design is nice addition.
Older version was better
|I bought this universal joint several years ago and just had it warrantied due to a retaining ring cracking causing the joint to have significant play which caused low torque transfer to my socket. Unfortunately, the joint has been redesigned and is terrible. The joint is a bit longer than my old one (which isn't convenient for the tight locations that require a universal joint) and gets SUPER tight on any sort of angle (same part number) wish I had my old broken one back.
did the job
|I think this item is ok for doing most jobs. I used this to get a bolt out of a caliper mount, they are torqued to 210 ft/lbs. Using an impact it worked fine but started messing up the swivel. It was harder to turn or swivel by hand after using it on the job. I think the swivel needs a drop of oil or grease for lube.
Great product
