there are two types , one is E the other T , the T type look like the normal ones that jeep place around the car , BUT the xj has a E type at the back of bell housing , very hard to get in with a socket and is the E type , (rised up star spicket ) it is better to use a spanner from up top , takes a little bit of time but better than have to extend and uni knuckle .

Yepp. I got one today from Autobarn. Trouble is it's only a Kinchrome so not sure how strong it will be. Lifetime warranty he said but that won't help much when I live 1.25hrs away from Autobarn and it breaks when I most need it.

I did think about that just 20 mins ago lol. I actually may have as well if the brand wasn't Kinchrome, bloody Chinese tools. Anyone had much experience with Kinchrome and them being able to take some punishment?
