IMO you will be fine. "I am not ashamed to confess I am ignorant of what I do not know." "It's never wrong to do the right thing"

It was a nice HD impact socket so I did not take it back, just kept it and put it in the trailer tool box.

Its a Free rental, but if you want it, you can keep it and they keep your payment. They will tell you that right up front, Auto Zone, Oreilly, and Advanced auto, all have that policy here in Canton, Ohio.

Why don't the mods kick people like this off for posting on topics that have nothing to do with the topic. Stanton: Well folks there you have it, I have all the proof I need. They do let MORONS on these sites!!!!!!!! Justinp61: Yes it is meant to be that way. They charge you the retail price + sales tax and if it is not returned in a couple days they order in a new one. I know this for sure at AZ and Oreillys. They offer the rental program to keep the real thieves from buying a tool using it and returning it. if the renter decides he likes the tool and wants to keep it, he has already paid for it. I just had a conversation with my local Oreilly parts store manager [also a former AZ employee], about this and he says rent and return for a 100% return of $$$$ or keep it if you wish. My post was letting the original poster know he can use a decent tool for free or buy it for a reasonable price rather than pay for a pretty much useless HF tool. BTW if anyone is at the same race track as me and needs a 1 5/16" socket I have one in the trailer that you are welcome to use, except Stanton

I have a Craftsman in 1/2' drive that is much thinner than an impact socket......you can buy them one at a time in 6 or 12 point and they aren't all that expensive. Seems to me I got it after getting a 3/4 " drive with an adapter for something or other. Harley primary drive ?........but they didn't have the 1/2 " drive in stock at the time. I do have a couple 3/4" drive sockets for when I need to stand on the end of 6" of pipe to reach spec.

I was gonna rent the cam bearing install kit from my local parts store... I had used it before and the last time the guy didnt return... they didnt want to replace the $200 kit

The last craftsman tools I bought were china made, I figure if I'm going to buy china made tools I might as well pay china made prices. I've never rented tools so I guess I'm not qualified to comment on it. The last big socket I bought was well over $40.
