You may find cheaper (both in quality and price) tools at Northern or Harbor Freight but IMO I want quality USA tools. Why help out the Chinese when I want the good old USA to have good jobs for folks.

I don't think you can fit an adjustable wrench on the drain, as the bolt is recessed in the diff housing.
I tried the adjustable wrench the first time I changed my diff fluid... it was obvious it wouldn't work because the bolt is recessed in the diff housing so I bought the socket that day. I did use an adjustable for the fill bolt, and still do.

23mm is for the upper fill bolt so that wrench works for it, the lower recessed drain bolt is 24mm which is best done with a socket and ratchet.
