Whitworth spanners

Hi don't know if anyone is short of a couple of ww spanners but mine were getting a little old so I opened my wallet and purchased these from ebay. They only took a couple of days to arrive and I'm happy with them, not the best of quality but for the price who can complain. Whitworth spanners ain't easy to find and the prices are going up all the time so dig deep guys

Laser tools make whitworth spaners and most motor factors deal with Laser. Not bad quality tools for the price, they also do whitworth sockets as well.
Mind you don't go buying loades of tools thuogh as they are quite cheep, you may walk away with an emty wallet

ya
mine are from silverline
good quality
ideal for losing on the rally field
or in the shed

What range of Whitworth spanners and sockets will I need to strip and rebuild a Lister D engine? I've been given a complete engine, it turns over ok but the governors are seized and I think it will need a complete check over.

Yes the Silverline spanners are indeed very nice, I have a set.

You could also go to your local car boot and get them for 20-50p each.

!/4 and 5/16 will cover most of the D nuts, you have to do what I did and collect the correct Lister stamped Whitworth spanners, took me a few years but I have a good selection.
