An inner socket having a body is rotatably mounted within the inner diameter of the hollow body of the outer socket. The body of the inner socket has a first end and a second end. The first end of the inner socket is adapted for engaging a nut of the same size as engaged by the first end of the outer socket. The second end of the inner socket also having a connection that allows transfer of torque to the inner socket.
