    What do you use dead blow hammers for?

    I have a 5' long pry bar, (not really a pry bar but a solid piece of metal rod that i use as a pry bar when needed) pry against the wheel and subframe.. It takes a lot less effort to get the wheel off that way. I live in MN and NEVER have had to heat up a wheel to get it off, thats pretty...

    Hantek Oscilloscopes?

    Coming from someone who has a Modis with 4 channel lap scope. I wish I shelled out the money for the Picoscope. Get it from autonerdz.com and it comes with much more added value, the training they give is top notch. I may still even buy one because the modis is to cumbersome sometimes

    The shop is located in Fridley, Mn. Name is Minnoco. (Minnesota Oil company) It is a 4 bay service/gas station/car wash. I look forward to ordering these as I have been wanting to reorganize my socket draw for some time!

    I am in, and will try to spread the word. I run a small MN auto shop and I know the importance of buying local. I'm always down for supporting the local guys! I just hope they know what they are getting into! Sounds like its going to be a BIGGGG order

    Help with Concrete Seams / Expansion Joints

    Did you ask the installer about how close they can bolt the lift to the control joint? We had a lift installed here at the shop in May and the installer mentioned it not being a good idea to install in within so many inches of a control joint.

    The Pliers Rack.

    A local store had some Plyworx "The Pliers Rack" on sale, and I immediately thought of this site. So I picked up a couple. Looking to sell them for what I bought them for $17.14. Amazon has them for sale for 18.95+10.95 shipping. Not a great discount, but I'm just looking to get what I paid for...

    My Mac story. Problems with dealer.

    I'd be on the phone asap. They basically stole from you. Whether they can fix the item or not, they need to either replace it or refund you your money back. None of this "lost" and you MUST pay for a new one BS
