Breaker Bar

Postby Drift on Thu Dec 27, 2007 3:00 pm

Ok following the stupid in law buying me a crow bar rather than a breaker bar for Christmas (typical)

Should have seem my face trying not to laugh when I saw it wrapped up.


Well Im after a decent one most likely 24" and 1/2" drive.

So whats out there recommended at not a stupid price ?

Was thinking halfords with the lifetime warrenty ?

a crow bar is just as good at breaking things :lol:

halfords is probably the best way to go .....especially as you've got a trade account :twisted: :lol:

Camberley Auto Factors do a nice one as well.
I dare say they'll post.

I think that's where my 24 inch one came from (at least I think it's 24 inch, might be longer!) :shock:

Very useful devices.. in more ways than one ;)
