I'm sure it is all designed to get you too buy more pliers... companies make more money that way.

I was checking my tire pressure today and starting thinking about how honest my three dollar gauge really was. My tire pressure just doesn't seem to be be were i like it. My question is... is there any reason to spend more and get a better gauge? I would rather have a durable, accurate gauge...

The knipex pliers have a slimmer jaw that will make things alot easier. I have 3 pairs that i use daily... one of them pushing 8 years old.

Thanks for the response. I was mainly looking at getting the 3/8 ratchet that extends and it looked the the HF one.

Are the Craftsman Evolv line of tools the same as HF tools? They look the same in every way... except for the color of the handles. Any good or bad opinions other than the fact Their China made tools?

I like that Sealey box... nice and compact. What do you use for pliers and screwdrivers?

They might be 3/4... but i'm so desperate to switch to all metric i'll take the 19mm. I tried both side by side and couldn't tell which one was better.

What on a Jeep is 3/4? Mine is all 19mm.

What sticks out about the one box? The color?

Made in Spain.

I almost bought a 94 cherokee, but i ended up getting an 2003 liberty. Jeeps really are a nice ride... easy to work on in my opinion. What kind of tools are you throwing in that C-man box?

I got to it to work using the brake fluid and tapping it with a 1/2 extension. The kit i got didn't come with any lube. Thanks for the suggestions.

it's just the dust seal on the outside. It will not press in without the other side popping back out. I'm using sil-gylde to lube the dust boot. The screwdriver idea sounds like a good one.

I am pretty new to working on cars, and i thought i would do my own brakes this time. I had to replace the piston dust seal and now i can't press in the new one. Any suggestions on how to do this? Thanks.

The only thing i would ever open the door to find is a Rattlesnake.
