Machined from high-grade steel and finished with a black oxide coating, the tool resists wear and protects against slipping under torque. It matches the two-pin engagement pattern used by Volvo and Mack, making it a direct-fit replacement or upgrade to the OEM 9996791 and TG15103 tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this socket make removing stubborn leaf spring pins easier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe socket’s dual-pin design engages the pin recess securely, concentrating torque where it’s needed so the pin turns rather than the socket slipping.
