Default CT/NY Area: Need a 35mm Deep Socket for the Day - Help an SC Brotha out!

So, my SC has been off the road for a year and I'm trying to FINALLY get it back on the road today - pretty excited. I've done a bunch of stuff to the car (Megan coilovers, dazien bushings, supra front lca's, LS400 brakes up front, SC400 in the rear, Supra subframe, etc..)

I went to throw the driveshaft back in (one of the final steps - getting pretty excited!!!) at 11:00 last night when I realize that the companion flange on my Supra Auto TT rear diff doesn't match up to my SC300 driveshaft. This is what I get for going off memory on research I did a year ago...

Anyway, I need a 35mm deep socket to swap the companion flange off of my SC300 onto the Supra diff. Nobody around here stocks them. Anyone in the CT/NY area have one I can borrow for the day?

you can get it at sears, keep it clean, and return it. meaning like, wrap it in saran wrap.

Sears doesn't stock it - it has to be ordered. I'm looking at a week and a half w/ normal delivery, and a week with $15 expedited shipping. I don't mind buying it, just need it ASAP.

Damn. Was hoping you lived right around me. I could borrow one from my mechanic, but I can't actually give it to anyone else.

I can leave you/your mechanic a $50 deposit on it. You can buy one online for $30 shipped:

If I take off and you never see me again (which wouldn't happen...) you have more than enough to buy another one, have it in a week, and put half a tank of gas in your/his car.

Really just looking to get the socket today. Cost isn't the issue, it's time!

Let me know - I'd like to do the swap tonight after work. I can pick up this afternoon between 12:00 and 3:00, and can bring it back tomorrow!

I'll find out. I gotta head downtown and will be back around 2:15 or so. I'll post up here. Not 100% he has a 35mm deep socket, but he has always had every tool I need.

Are you sure it's a 35mm and not a 36 though?

PM sent w/ my cell number.

Also, I read on here it had to be 35mm deep, but I asked on SupraForums whether it was 35mm or 36mm and to confirm it had to be deep.
