Yes Steve, the "flare" design particularly being superior. However all the crow's foot attachments I have had measured are too wide to fit into the shroud (even 3/8 in. drive) surrounding the securing nut*. I've another to investigate on Monday morning but it's looking increasingly likely that using a torque wrench on this is going to be impossible (with the spring fitted).

* This is made more difficult by the nut size being increased from 15mm to 17mm.
