I was looking at either an Icon or Tekton earlier strictly for tire duty. I would have no problem with either one. Ended up finding a basically new Precision locally for $50. Kid said he "upgraded" to a Snap On and said the snappy dealer wasn't going to give him anything for his PI :lol: Its...

I was stating(in a doubtful manner) that I would like to see a standard style automotive test light that pulls 5 amps since it would be the size of a ******* headlight. Just like you I also know there are headlights can pull more or less than 5 amps so I guess we are both right and both wrong...

I'm just generalizing. Typical 55 watt headlight. Doesn't really matter for the purpose of this thread.

All my semi deep 1/2" sockets are Harbor Freights that have been cut down. Works just fine. Cost 20 bucks and a bit of your time.

1 amp I'm sure there is. 5 amp? I'd like to see that. A standard headlight doesn't even pull that much at 12v. I just have various lights/heaters/solenoids/etc that I have turned into tools to load test circuits. Math it out or use an amp clamp to figure out what it draws and write it on...

That's what I was trying to get at for the OP. 2k isn't going to get a new and pretty 1000cc 4 wheeler but it will get you something that is more than capable of pulling things around the yard. I actually just jumped on my local FBMP and it brought up a pile of four wheelers that don't look...

How big of vehicles? Used 4 wheeler?

I've made reels for light duty stuff out of two round pieces of plywood and a few 2x4s. If I need heavy duty I use old disc blades and weld a piece of 4-5" exhaust pipe in-between. All basically free depending on what you have laying around. Cart/spindle/mount just depends on what I'm...

I have a Snap On BK8500 that I use all the time but I would like to find something with a better picture, maybe a bigger screen, and I for sure would like a smaller camera head. Currently has a 5.5mm head.....I didn't realize until right now you can get a smaller 3.8mm camera from Snappy but...

Any idea if the DeWalt 20v batteries work in the Craftsman tools?

I have thought about doing this as well. I think I have a power supply from an old PC that would probably power the pump Curious what you are using to run the pump?

These Flex Blade squeegees are the bees knees. On my floor they work way better than a normal rubber or silicone bladed one. https://libmanpro.com/products/1014-professional-flex-blade-floor-squeegee

All the time with 3/8 and 1/2". The older and more crippled I get it's amazing how many times a day I will use a 2-3ft extension instead of standing on my head in an engine bay or trying to contort into some shape to get to a fastener. Bellhousing bolts, starters, shocks, motor mounts, torque...

There are a couple but they are all over $1000. What about adding a hand crank to one of the hydraulic jack style ones you are finding? Hand crank winches can me bought cheap and a couple pulleys could be added fairly easy.

Quickest way is probably to split it with a Dremel and little cut off wheel. Either two cuts opposite one another or one in the top they spray some penetrating oil down the split. Not going to hurt anything if you get into the threads on the valve a little.
