What is the correct size? I saw a few at pepboys today while picking up some new windshield wipers, and wasnt sure on which size it was...

Some of the boxes had different sizes but said the same years and such.. :confused:

Thanks in advance

I believe it is 3/8" but I buy the set that comes on a black stick tray thingy. I think they are Leslie brand in a red and white packaging. An assortment of 5 or 6 spring lock tools. A must have for Fords:hammer:

Cool, thanks.. they had some scissor type ones, but looke pretty cheaply made. But had some nice metal ones that looked pretty sturdy....

I have a problem with breaking tools for some reason

The best ones are those white plastic rings on that black strip holder.

I have the anodized aluminum, scissor type, they work great also.:tu:

The size is 5/16" for the Lightning and I'd suggest getting the aluminum one.
