[edit] Fallout 2
| ||||||||||||||||||||||
A typical wrench used by mechanics. It appears only in Fallout 2. While not very useful as a weapon, it is needed for the Deliver pliers (tools) and a wrench to Valerie quest.
Locations:
- Found by receiving the tip from Curtis after completing the Find Mr. Nixon quest
- In the second level of Vault 8, in a storage room (requires a high lockpick skill)
- Redding, at the Morningstar Mining headquarters, in a locker
- Occasionally the general purpose store in San Francisco has them in stock
- A ghoul caravan along the Gecko-Broken Hills trade route also carries wrenches.
- Found in the back area of New Reno Arms
- In the Chop Shop
[edit] Fallout 3

The wrench can also be found as a miscellaneous junk usable as Rock-It Ammo in Fallout 3. It cannot be used to repair anything or as a weapon.
[edit] Unique wrenches
There are two unique wrenches in Fallout 3. The first is called Donovan's Wrench, obtained by killing Donovan of Reilly's Rangers - however it is marked as a quest item (used to fix the elevator in the Reilly's Rangers quest) and cannot be dropped or traded, giving you a permanent pound of carry weight. The second is called the Spanner, and was intended for inclusion in the Mothership Zeta add-on, but was cut. It is only obtainable through the command console, disappears when dropped, and has an incomplete set of animations.
[edit] Locations
There are over 370 guaranteed locations for the wrench, often near workbenches. They may also be found in random loot.
- The first wrench to be found is next to a dead mechanic in Vault 101 during "Escape!"
- 17 can be found on the Factory Floor of the Red Racer Factory
- 15 are scattered around Meresti Metro Station
- 15 are in Evergreen Mills Bazaar
- 11 can be found on the RobCo Facility Factory Floor
- 10 are in the utility tunnels beneath the White House
