thx for the reply
Or...cut a section out of a socket so you'll have clearance on the back side? Also, I wonder if anyone makes a 7mm flare wrench??? Might work, maybe.
Or, make a 7mm flare wrench out of a 7mm combo...gotta be some way to gain clearance on that side...

Maybe this thread should define "quality" in tools...is Craftsman "quality" or is it "cheap"? All depends on the viewpoint, I guess.
