The Truck Tool Equivalents Thread 2.0 - Expanded with Part Numbers

[scrappy610]

Thanks, would be really cool to see pics of the double stamped sockets.

As promised. It's the 6 mm shallow. Sorry about that bad pics but my phone is all I have. This is the kit it came in. Small gray blow mold case. I tore the top off to fit in the drawer

And here's the socket. Silver eagle/husky

Kinda upset me I paid the money I did for it. Had I known I would have just went to Home Depot.

Wow, I'd be frustrated too. I was wondering what the Silver Eagle stuff crossed over with.

 

[AndrewV]

Makes sense. Apex/Danaher tools.
but way to drastic of a price difference in them.

 

[kctyphoon]

dont know if this is already listed, or an old set - but found this on craigslist:



its a snap on vs cat set

All the CAT tools are Snap-On and Williams, but with even higher prices...

 

[andrewd]

Anybody have an equivalent for this Snap-On metric hex bit socket set? The SO item number is 106ETMAMY (click for a link) and here is a stock picture:

Yes, it's kinda strange that CAT cost more than snappy

 

[warmpancakes]

old cat was partially snap on, the new stuff is almost all williams sourced,

Which adds even more irony that it's pricier than Snap-On

Don't think so....I believe that's one you just have to nut up and eat the cost. But hey, it is worth it.

VIM is a good alternative, but the SO warranty is just so damn easy for these.

The cat version cost me 63.00

I figured... I've used them in the bike shop and they are certainly drool worthy. I'm going to see how the Wiha units I snagged end up working out.

Just updated the second Matco section to include the crossover with the Sunex service cart and additional drawers, shelves and pry bar holders.

Also, recently updated the Matco/Armstrong/Craftsman pinless impact swivel sockets with their new Gearwrench twins.

Great thread, thanks for posting a worthwhile resource.
I buy most things from the truck and that will continue but I may refer to this for options on certain items.

Glad to do it. Saved myself a small fortune doing the research, and hope to do the same for other folks.

Hi was wondering who makes these Matco 10 PIECE 72 TOOTH STUBBY FLEX METRIC SET
http://www.matcotools.com/catalog/product/S7GRFSM10/10-PIECE-72-TOOTH-STUBBY-FLEX-METRIC-SET/
Please reply back thanks

I bet those are made by Kabo and not Gearwrench. The key would be the presence of a small brass screw on the ratcheting boxed end equals a Kabo made ratcheting wrench. The Kabo wrenches are much better than Gearwrench in my opinion.

 

[AllAboutTools]

awesome thread idea with a lot of good info!

 

[u118224]

Any idea who makes the Matco NB109 prybar holder? It's in their current catalog but Matco says they're no longer available. The other option is the Matco PBR11 24 hole holder. Matco is asking $189.15 for that. These attach to their roller cabs.

Can't find any info since neither of those numbers bring up anything besides older GJ threads (or your question in this thread), and the Matco site only has the Sunex made prybar holders listed.

I hate to pick on Matco.... But

Pulley Puller

Lisle
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000XEX00A/?tag=atomicindus08-20
$50.26 (I got one on ebay for $40)

Matco
http://www.matcotools.com/catalog/product/PP390/PULLEY-PULLER-INSTALLER/
$84.40

Mac guy also said he had one for around 75 I think. Matco had it in a flyer and I was seeing what kind of price I could get from Mac. Couldn't find it on their site tho.

 

[rodsnratfinks]

I had a cman pair that broke on the first use I thought they were Chinese.

These are mine, but they are older, so I don't know...

 

[DodgeMech]

anyone know the OE of those? i have the cman version, and a couple guys in the shop have the snappy, that's the same design with different handles, and another has the matco version that's like a right angle version...all made in france though

 

[DanInVA]

I have a set that I bought used from a friend. He most likely got it off if the matco truck. If you look closely at it, I believe it says MAYHEW. Sorry about the rust.

 

[DodgeMech]

mayhew made in france...hell yeah...thanks for that bud

Does this set match up? Didn't see it.

Williams 50681 1/4-Inch and 3/8-Inch Drive Bit Socket Set, 32-Piece

 

[pennsylvaniaboy]

can we get this to be a sticky too?

 

[ihateminimumwage]

It's not hard to do. Might be easier to go through the entire Lisle catalog and just match stuff up. Added the puller to the Matco section, thanks!

Most likely the same as sold by Blue Point, but didn't see any direct set crossovers.

Hopefully if enough folks request it.

One of the best threads I have ever seen on any forum. Thanks for taking the time to do the original parts cross reference and then keeping it updated. I have learned a lot in the short time I have been on this site.

You ain't kidding.....I can't tell you how much I've saved new and used. I @an go to sales and pick up brand x tool for 5 bucks with a snap on right next to it for 20. And the oem tool is usually in better shape because it hasn't been beat on in a mechani@ type environment.

I'm working on a way to build this all into my original truck tools thread post which is stickied. Updates soon!

Astro 78445 - MATCO ATK5

Lisle 57750 - MAC TT7750, MATCO WT577, Snapon TT3KT

Wilmar W89732 - STEELMAN 95839, MAC TT95839, MATCO MASTERM23

Excellent finds! I'll add them to the list.

To everyone that wants this thread as a sticky, feel free to send a message to the Mods. Would love to get it up there so we can keep it from getting buried and have more posts like the one from JDSV above that provided so many crossovers.
