I am looking for an external set that resembles this internal pair.
Due to clearance issues I need the 90degree bend and the extra long nose. Everybody sells this style in internal but no one it seems has an external variety.
Hopefully someone can help me find what I need.

Im replacing the clutch assembly on a van without pulling the compressor.
All I have left to remove is the coil and due to the hole depth and proximity to the radiator none of my pliers will work. Surely somebody makes one.

I have a set which lets you flip it from expand to contract by moving the hinge pin. Weak link for me has always been the tips bending or breaking.

These may not be long enough
there are some very long nose straight ones; maybe you can use a torch to bend the tips, quench

My dad had an old set with removable tips, all different kinds of tips. Never knew where those went when i settled the estate. My brother probably stole them. Real heavy duty set too.

Yes I have a couple of those also. Tried modifying one of them to work but the assembly is too thick to get in the opening.

I have three different ones that take the changeable tips.
