I tried searching and didn't find any info, so I have a question. I have a double box end craftsman wrench that is mis labeled( stamped). The 9/16" side is marked 1/2 and the 1/2" side is marked 9/16. Is this a collectible?

Just picked up a 14pc. deep set (3/8-1-1/4?) from Harbor Freight. Both the standard and metric are on sale for $20 per set. I was also at sears today...their set 12pc.set was 89.99. I thought it was a pretty good deal and wanted to pass it on.

I have a gearwrench 1/2" drive ratchet I have yet to break. I have broke 2 new craftsman 1/2" ratchets since I have purchased the gearwrench. As for 3/8 drive, I am always replacing the craftsman ones...except for an older model..it has a metal,chrome looking F/R selector instead of the newer...

Keep it coming guys, I think I've almost made up my mind.

Anyone else have this problem?

I am in the market for a 1/2" impact gun. We have the IR thunderguns at work and they seem pretty nice. I don't know much about the other models. I have found these guns for 219-269. I just came across one for $169 and I think its probably a good deal. Anyone have a reason not to buy one...

You've probably already done this as it is an older post but if you haven't, Drywall, or sheetrock lifts make short work of hanging osb on the cieling. That is how I did mine...(by myself)

I searched pirate but haven't had any luck with info. on where to get the taps. There were alot of writeups on what I'm doing, I'm just looking for the tools. Thanks again for the help thus far...Any other suggestions before I go buy one?

I don't have any pics right now, but I am going from a full length tie rod, and a drag link from pitman arm to steering arm above the knuckle, to a set-up where the draglink will connect to the tierod near the knuckle. I have the right diameter tube on there now, I just need to shorten both of...

I need to buy a tap to tap the ends of my tierods. (I'm upgrading to 1 ton steering on my jeep axle) The one ton tie rod ends use 7/8x18 thread I believe. Does anyone know where I can find an inexpensive (notice I didn't say "cheap") one? I also am unfamiliar with fluted? taps or taps in...

I just got back home...left a deposit on it today! I don't know if he posted it sold butjust thought I 'd let you know so no one wastes there time with it.

Called the supplier, Turns out they didn't send me the "struts" that run horizontally across the door on each panel. Therefore the door was too light for the springs. I went and picked some up and now with the added weight I have got it pretty close. Thanks for all your help.

I'd go with 18x22 just in case you end up with two vehicles to put in there. Little more room on the side to get in and out. just my .02

Well I thought I could figure it out:headscrat. I put a insulated 16x9 overhead door in my garage and can't seem to figure out the spring tension for the door. There are two springs. If I turn them the same amount it will pick the door up off the floor but by the time its half way up, theres...

I just picked up a 220v Sandborn single stage 60 gal. 5 hp for $100. Nothing to brag about or waste time w/ pics but I'm pretty excited about it. I think it only makes half the noise my little craftsmen one did and I shoudn't have to wait for it to pump up between changing tires! I haven't...
