    Engineer here.

    This chart seems pretty stupid. I mean, why??? Also, what’s the use of the X-Y graph in inches and millimeters?

    Also, 3/4" converts to 19.1mm, not 19.0mm (19.05 rounds up)

    And anyone who has tried to use metric wrenches as a substitute for the proper size imperial one knows this is only going to work for a couple of sizes. The rest are going to be too tight or usually too loose.

    Are there even any imperial fasteners at all on any new vehicles today???

    This chart be dumb

      Its for workers. You can use 3/4 inch sockets on 19 mm bolts for example, and often the other way around too.

        You may be overestimating how many Ram drivers actually use their truck for anything besides peacocking. Maybe it’s a regional thing, but around here I see more of them without a scratch on the bed than hauling or towing anything.
