Given the finer filtration and the deletion of the bypass mechanism, it really was a no-brainer.

Just did the exact same thing last week. I searched a ton on this site and the web. The people in the know had all the right answers and advise.

This was actually a stumbling block. I have a ton of sockets but I didn't have a 26mm one. Nor did any of the stores around me carry them. I bought one online for $4.50 delivered so it just delayed me a tad.

Sad stuff. I try to learn from others mistakes. I will take this one to heart. I have never heard of teeth one the extensions failing but it makes sense that they could. Thanks you for posting this.
