They show up on eBay sometimes and are are sold or bid up to 40-65 dollars or so.

Thanks but still hoping I get a direct contact to save all the tension of bidding on ebay. Apparently its not good for the heart

The last time I looked I did not see any for sale or bid on eBay.

I bought a socket from Sears, and had it made for about 40; I have no doubt you could do it cheaper.

Ok ok, I'll get busy and cut a few up and put them together...
I have a patient renter that wants to rent my bent wrenches anyway...

What's a fair price for a custom one?

Chadstoolbox claims to sell them for $45.30 + Shipping.

Only the 3rd Wrench for $45.30 + Shipping.

There is also a site that sells the Assenmacher version of the 14mm Valve Wrenches for about $32+ shipping each.

If someone is thining about ordering be sure to contact the Seller and find out if they are in stock.

I have seen a used 3rd Wrench get bid up to $65 in ebay. I don't remember if that had free shipping or not.

Thanks for replies, having one made up will be next option if I don't come by one soon.

I just won an eBay auction for a set of hazets! The BIN was something like $190 and I put in a bid of $90, and won!

I make the bent tools for rent, or purchase. I might add the hazets to the tool rental thread once I get them in.

You suck, sir.

You might find the homemade ones are easier to use.

The heads on the Hazet Wrench are fatter then most open end wrenches and that can be a small issue especially on the 5th Cylinder.

I was noticing that.
Still, they have the MB star and part number on them, and they have the clip... I'm stoked.
I'll post pics of my homemade set tomorrow.
