Help replacing Y33 antenna base

[MAX_POWERS]

I bought a new antenna nut, base and an antenna socket set. The socket set I bought does not have the right size socket. Where can I get the right size socket?

Well, a SnapOn or MAC jobber for sure, maybe Sears in a pinch.

What size and where have you looked?

The one that i just removed doesn't have sides like a regular "nut." It is a circle with 4 slots cut into it, I used a screwdriver and hammer to remove one, but damaged it slightly. If you've got a new one then you can probably use this method if you grease the threads a little and are very careful.

The Snap On socket is the same socket I already have, but more expensive. The Mac socket set is just a Lisle socket set, also more expensive. I am going to look in to the Lisle socket set to see what sizes are avaliable.

vvvvv This is the socket set I have. vvvvvv

vvvvv Here is the Mac / Lisle set. vvvvvv

Really? I thought SnapOn manufactured all their sockets and did not buy 3rd party products.
