Harbor Freight!

I can't find the anodized ones, but an ugly black set is only $9. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=40036

The colored sleeves come off for really tight spaces.
That's funny, my 19mm impact socket from HF cracked *the first time I used it*. No joke.

There was a popping noise, I thought it was just the bolt breaking loose, but after that the socket just spun over the bolt. I thought I must have used the wrong size or something, but no, it just split the socket open.

That was during my JIC install, IIRC.
