Default no but autozone does....the ones you have to put it into a wrench

I would like to find some triple squares you can put directly onto a 1/2 or 3/8 drive ratchet.

Default I bought that set from autozone, you can make a home-made socket like I did..

Just cut the triple square bit to the size you need with a dremel cutting wheel or air cut off wheel if you have one, then epoxy or JB weld the bit into a spare (or go buy a single socket) socket. instant triple square socket I also did this with a 17mm hex key for the axle shoulder bolt. Sears sold an actual L shaped 17mm hex key. So I just cut about an inch and a half off the end with my air cut-off wheel, and jbweld'ed it into a spare socket that fit it.
