So I got few bits from SO, including repair kit just to see what difference it will make and I have to say i made it worse. Backdrag was stronger and not as smooth. I put back the original, lubed with Super Lube oil and it’s perfect now, almost as good as Snap On. Don’t waste your money on...

Icon g2 14” ratchet to replace FX80A. It took 2 weeks to arrive in the UK from the US. Overall quality is subjectively about 80% of Snap on, but considering the price it’s a no brainer. Even at £75($100) I consider it a good buy with no alternatives on the UK market. Biggest difference(to my...

Would like to hear your opinion on the above impact guns. They are rated similarly and on TTC channel numbers are in a favour of Makita just a small bit, but on other reviews looks like Dewalt have easier job on fasteners. Main use will be to remove nuts and bolts on my Honda Civic, 99%...

Some new additions to my tool box.

Hello, newbie here! I have won a set of 1/4" universal joint/extension set on eBay and was surprised to see that some of the usual details you expect to find on Snap On tools are missing. TMXK2 – USA stamp missing TMXK60 – USA stamp and production year code missing TMU8B – all stamps in place...
