I am currently overhauling the front suspension on my XJS, and unsurprisingly there are lots of rusted nuts and bolts. Two in particular made me go to the local hardware store and i bought a Draper nut splitter for £12. Annoyingly halfway through the second nut it broke.

Can anyone recommend a better quality one that will last more than 1 nut or are they inherently crap?

Take it back for a replacement, I have used Draper nut splitters & many other things with never a failure yet.

Although not the best Draper is normally pretty reliable/robust stuff.

Have a set of these Draper ones and they're great, much better than my previous ones!
