I have a tight access to a 7mm nut and none of my sockets or nutsetters fit. I have at best about 9.5mm diameter of clearance for this stupid 7mm nut. Are there such things as skinny or slim body nutsetters or sockets? How do I find them?
Welcome to the forum.
Why not purchase an inexpensive nut driver or socket, then modify that tool to carefully decrease the wall thickness to 0.75mm thick, such as w/ a grinder?
