I got mine for $53 shipped. Brand new. Some had luck at offering 30-35. Was an eBay listing.

 

[theamcaddict]

As much as i dislike harbor freight they had just what i needed when nobody had it in stock. I bought this kit because it has the reverse thread forcing screw for a right rear ford five hundred brake caliper. Made in Taiwan. Fit,finish& function including the case well exceeded my expectations. 32.09 out the door including sales tax.

Suspension/brake tool kits are one thing that I will buy from HF for the most part.

except for spring compressors.

That's a great brake kit. I'm like you and don't get much at HF but that's one I can recommend.

Worked perfectly on my Minis rear caliper.

I have that same kit on my HF list next time I go that way got 2 brake jobs coming up.

 

[e-tek]

That was a ebay buy it now for 79.99 !!!!!.......Almost bought them myself,but have to many already !!!!!

You're right! At that price it was a steal - especially when NO other flare wrenches come close!

 

[allinon72]

Agreed. I had a bolt break on one after the spring was loaded.

i like that wrench set. whats the pn on it?

 

[cowboy73]

The part number on the wrenches is 17511MX. I think they said they got them at Menards. I figure that I'll throw them in the junkyard box.

Glad I held off hitting the button,so somebody worthy of them could get them !!!!......All mine are flare end/open end....love them !!

 

[Chadwilliam1]

well. shoot. i found the set but its only avail in the store not online, and i havn't the slightest clue where the nearest menard's is. i never heard of the place till a couple weeks ago. and this was the first time ever on the site. oh well thanks anyhow.


CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO 63701
nearest one to me. haha

 

[Farmall450]

Thanks. I guess I'll try that. I was hopeful.

Same here, the shipping/10% off is always better on their site...think they'd just hire someone, they must have lost a ton of cash by now...

Yeah, you would think so. maybe they figure it's too costly to run a site, and only want to do ebay now???

Nothing fancy like you guys have.

Took a nice broken ratchet to Sear's and they gave me this Chinese ****.

Here comes the 100 posts about how you could ask for a rebuilt made in USA ratchet

 

[Revere Cycles]

My stepbrother got this Wilton sander combo from work; he is leaving it with me while he finishes a co-op for school. I can't promise that I will return it when he comes back...

This morning, I snapped up several Richard prybars at Ollie's using the tip from another thread.

Also, I added some Felo screwdrivers, Wera bit ratchet, Kreg jig, and a Campagnolo derailleur hanger alignment tool.

 

[chris30066]

I picked up the new 20 ton harbor freight shop press.

 

[bimmerZ5]

I can never justify a kit like this when this

does the job just as well.

 

[rickhigginshtbr]

if you feel like breaking and replacing the caliper every time you need to do the brakes on the rear, sure, go for it... those pistons in that one pictured only twist in, they will not push in.

Lol. Good luck.

That's the fanciest 7/16 I've ever seen! Gonna use it on F connectors?

Yep, besides f conncectors we use 7/16 for other items like grounding straps. I'm hoping the 12 pt open end will allow me better access to our coax taps in comm rooms which im sure you seen how packed they get.

Says the guy who has never done rear disk brakes?

Not every car that has full disk has a parking brake on the rear calipers. Maybe that guy only works on a specific car all the time.

Westling Machine socket holders and the Snap-on 1/4" metric shallow and deep sockets:

Bought these about a month or so ago, excluding the Craftsman V-Series:

I stated the the reverse thread part of the kit was used for passengerside rear caliper on a ford five hundred. I ve worked On a car or two and I know when simpler tools can be used. Trust me when i say that i dont step into that store unless i have to.

If it didnt have the parking brake and the reverse rotation piston then i could meet have used a butter knife.

9 out 10 cars I work on have twist in rear caliper pistons. That Irwin Quickgrip won't cut it unfortunately. I use a kit just like AMCAddicts - worth every penny...
