depending on the access to the boot clamp,
eliminating the need to, say, remove a
brake caliper in order to gain access to the
clamp.
I tried this out on a 2013 Kia Soul. The
tool made the job so easy (and fun) that I
was a bit bummed out that I didn't have a
reason to install more clamps on additional
vehicles. The tool is designed to accommo-
date 1/4-inch to 3/8-inch clamp widths,
and features a handy built-in cutter to cut
a band to the appropriate length. Materi-
als and construction are defnitely rated for
severe duty in a pro shop environment.
We'll defnitely take a look at a few of
Sonic's other tools in the future. By the
way, they offer a way-cool and very exten-
sive line of high quality tool chests and
cabinets. While you may already have a
favorite tool supplier, do yourself a favor
and check out Sonic's lineup. You'll be
amazed at the incredible variety. ●

Tool Review
Clamp installation was easy due to the use of
a ratchet. The futed grip handle provides a
steady hold, but where access is limited, the
grip handle can be removed.
