^ I think I have a Vibrant 3"-2.75" 45* in black sitting in my garage that I have no use for. It's not a cheap one though.

What would you say, like $15 or so? I was looking at siliconeintakes.com and that's about the going price for them.

Lemme go find it and check if it's the correct size, but it cost me a lot more than that. It's one of the long ones that you could easily cut into 3 full sized couplers (the bend and 2 straights).

underscore 09-17-2014 09:51 PM

Whoops, turns out I have a 3" 90* and a 3" 45*, no reducers. Sorry man.

Anyone know where I would be able to find boot shapers for my girlfriend? it's used to keep boots standing up so they don't crease. Also, what about the rubber outsoles that you stick onto the bottom of boots so they provide grip and protection? Thanks guys!

boot shapers for you gf - Homesense, shoe repair places, or depending on her level of maintenance. If she is low, rolled up newspaper. :)

for you are you looking for just grip or protections. Shoe repair changes heels from cheap plastic to rubber for grip but the ultimate in protection are theses... Tingley Weather Fashions Rubber Overshoes - Clothing & Shoe Care | Men's Wearhouse

My great grandfather is the last person I know that used 'rubbers' They were smaller back then and just covered bottom 2". google rubber shoe protection.

Cambodian Tire definitely has them. They also come in various styles too for example the following style comes with wheels so it's easier to lug around.

Issue is space is kinda tight, so it wouldn't fit with an adapter.
Ended up getting 1/2 drive sockets from Lordco, will have to pick up a new 1/2 ratchet and torque wrench though. Thanks anyways for the suggestion.

edit: Just checked the link, might end up picking up the Acklands Grainger 3/8 sockets if they have it in stock, kinda pricey but wouldn't have to get a new ratchets and torque wrench. Thanks!

Try Sears, but not the Metrotown location, tool department sucks there. Brentwood Sears is pretty good for selection.

A 1/2 drive torque wrench will benefit you more than a couple of special 3/8 sockets though.
