I use a deep 17 and breaker bar on mine

Deep socket

So worth investing in a deep 17 then. Shame the current Halfords 150 set doesn't include 1/2 deep sockets

its an awesome set but i have had to buy a few extra things including the 17 socket.... also realising it doesnt have a 9mm wrench when ive got the wheel off and just about to brake the bleed valve loose  but hey, taught me to check first

iirc, it changed a while back.

Steve, I will get a 24" one. 16" will require too much effort!

One of the good things about the Arcan jack, is the top half of the jack handle comes off. It fits neatly over breaker bar handles and socket wrench handles.

Very useful for getting extra leverage on stubborn bolts!

How about one of these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l2736&_nkw=extend+wheel+brace You can get them for bu66er all, certainly cheap enough to buy one for the boot of all your cars.

I have one of those, paid a lot more 20 odd years ago, that said I really need to put it in the Jeep as it has no wheel brace...not that I will ever be changing a wheel on that......
