what is the difference between 7 and 8 pin tubular lock pick

[tank12983]

I have seen many tubular or ace lock pick and I don't know the difference between 7 and 8 pin lock picks also i wnat to know wich tubular pick to purchase

[tank12983]

also what are double sided wishbone tension wrenches and pro auto tension wrenches for

[stick]

7 and 8 pin tubular lock picks pick 7 and 8 pin tubular locks. Because there are more pins in an 8 pin lock, the distances between the pins are different, so the 8 pin is changed to accomodate that.

The pro auto tension wrenches should be obvious. They're used for autos, to hold back that dust shield thing. I'm pretty sure the wishbone wrench is designed to do the same thing, although I'm not sure.

That's two things.

Yes, you can pick a tubular lock. Search the forum.

For a lock with two sets of pins, as long as it's just two sets of pins and nothing else, just pick it like a normal lock, and pick both sets of pins.
