Nice socket! Stahlwille is quality - made in germany. Most of my tools are not high end, but get the job done. Sometimes for a precision job, I will buy or borrow a high quality tool. I borrowed a mechanic friend’s torque wrench for the rod bearing job, and in the years since I have bought a set of quality ones for myself.
Still don’t have angle torque wrenches but may add one or two at some point. I used an angle adapter when I did the rod bearings using stock bolts, and that is not ideal because each added fitting can have an effect on torque. But everything seems fine 6 years and 43k miles later and I will change them again in the next year or two.
