One of the spanner wrenches that came with my raceland coilovers bent somehow and now its as useful as a poopie flavored lollipop! I mean they sucked anyway, they would barely bite and it wont bite at all! My question is, where came I get some spanner wrenches that are worth a ____ and wont cost me a fortune? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Nice thanks hoodie. OP just bend it back and it will serve its purpose til you pick up some higher quality spanners. RL cast spanners are terrible. Throw it in a vice and bend it until it works.

The RL spanner wrenches are knuckle breakers. You have to be real careful to get them to stay on. I think someone actually mentioned a way of bending them to make them bite better.
