Great tool for anyone with a B6. I was looking at the associated short but drivers and ran across this one and I am glad I bought. Has both sizes that I needed. Everyone needs one of these in their tool box!
For the price this is definitely a nice little tool to have around. Ive used this thumb wrench countless times to build multiple ARRMAs & my new Tekno buggy. Well built and seems to be holding up so far. Made from aluminum not sure which kind but so far its been a investment that was well worth it and works in conjunction with my MIP drivers.
Another tool you should have in your box. for adjusting the slipper clutch, with out removing the rear wheel.
Mini thumb wrench for 5.5 and 7mm, winner winner!! This stays in my go bag and is so convenient to use. I have different tools, but having one of these is a game change in tight spaces for sure!!
I love this tool! It makes adjusting the slipper so much easier without having to find room for a cross wrench between the wheel and gearbox, plus I love the markings on it as it lets you easily see how much adjustment you made. Also makes to easier to get to the top shock nuts where sometimes space for a bigger wrench is limited by a rear wing or the angle on the front shock tower.
Reviewers consistently rate this aluminum combo thumb wrench highly, with a 5.5mm and 7.0mm pair in one compact tool. Buyers value it for tight spaces, slipper clutch adjustment without removing the rear wheel, and reaching top shock nuts. Several note it is a small, handy addition to a toolbox, particularly for B6 and ARRMA or Tekno builds. One reviewer found the tool short and the handle small, making tight nuts hard to turn, especially with greasy or sweaty fingers, and wished for a longer, grippier handle. Reviewers also praised the markings for tracking slipper adjustments. Feedback is generally positive with one notable criticism about handle size.
