Struggling to see the point of these. I have the OG Gearwrench pass through set and I bought it for that reason. Seems like these wouldn't have any advantage over a standard drive set of bits. Sale price is ok though.
So you have to have both GearWrench 1/4 and 3/8 drive pass-through ratchets to make use of these?
Yes, they certainly can be used with 1/4" or 3/8" square drive ratchets, but you loose the low-profile clearance advantage of using them with the GW "Vortex" or Craftsman "Max Axess" ratchet handles

Still, more options are obviously better, so this is a very versatile set.

Look at this pic if you don't see how these sockets can be used with any of those ratchets:

They are bit sockets exclusively for use with their pass thru ratchets. If you have regular bit sockets and regular ratchet wrenches (or the square adapters for the pass thru ratchets), you probably don't need these.
