SOCKET ASSIST

We’ve all been frustrated with a bolt located in such a tight space (header bolt!) you can’t possibly get a ratchet on it. Not a problem anymore with Proform Parts Socket Assist. Each patented Socket Assist has a 12-point end to facilitate finger turning until snug. Also the Socket Assist allows using a combination wrench that’s equal to or smaller than the socket drive size. They are available in 1/4x1/4, 1/4x3/8 and 3/8x3/8-inch sizes and are a must have for your tool crib.

Socket Assist allows a large spark plug socket with a 3/8-inch drive opening to be turned by a small 1/4-inch open end or ratchet wrench. The tools non-12-point end has a 1/4 or 3/8-inch square drive with a spring-loaded detent ball that secures the socket. All three sizes are included in the self-sealing blister pack, and Proform now has the new Clipstrip for easy handling and POP display box for retail sales.

Rockers That Fit

T&D Machine Products, manufacturers of the finest in shaft-mount rocker arm technology, has made available a single shaft system for the new Edelbrock Victor 440 cylinder head. Wrapped around a 3/4”heat treated steel (8620) shaft, these rockers contain a pair of caged needle roller bearings.

They cure all valvetrain and pushrod geometry problems with the proper rocker arm offsets -- 0.650 intake and 0.120 exhaust. The adjusters have a hardened steel cup and large 3/16” hex and 12-point nut for trouble free adjustment.  Oiling is through head, and more precise ball/ball pushrods are mandatory. Also, T&D offers this Mopar set with ratios from 1.5 to 1.7.

Available through speed shops, engine builders or direct from T&D.

Gloves in a Bottle

Gloves In A Bottle is a shielding lotion that rapidly absorbs into, and bonds with, the outer layer of skin creating a protective layer while retaining the natural moisture from within. This makes it the perfect dry skin care product.

It does not wash off, but comes off naturally with exfoliated skin cells. Just reapply every four hours for continued protection.

It's greaseless, non-sticky, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, completely safe and non-toxic.

These "invisible gloves" prevent dry skin by helping to keep moisture-robbing irritants out while better retaining your skin's own natural moisture, resulting in skin that is far better hydrated, over the long term, than what can ever be achieved by conventional lotions.
