Switched from a standard wrench to a ratcheting box end for a tight motor coupling in a Philly high-rise last month.
The old way took me 45 minutes of fighting for a quarter turn, but the ratcheting head got it done in under five. Anyone got a better tool for those impossible rear access spots?

Ever try a flex-head ratchet?

My buddy was working on his truck's starter, stuck in this tight spot behind the transmission. His regular ratchet just wouldn't clear the firewall. He grabbed his flex-head, cranked the handle at a crazy angle, and got the bolt loose in two seconds. Said it felt like cheating. He won't touch a job without one now.
