Does t40 equal 6mm??

Trying to stay away from the snap-on guy actually,last one i bought was 30 bucks,Sears sells it for like 7.

I think most auto parts stores sell the set for very little $.

Is it a torx or a true 12 point square pattern? If it's just a 12 point bolt (looks like the inside of a 12 point socket), go just about anywhere that has tools and that's a very very common socket. I don't have a wagon so I can't tell you the size, but I can tell you if it isn't a torx, it's nothing special, just a common 12 point. resembles a 1/2" is probably a 12(under) or 13mm(over), resembles a 7/16" is probably an 11mm, resembles a 3/8" is probably a 10mm.
