Update and Bump...

So many threes, so much more dyslexia. Thanks for that[emoji28] Been trying to find out if matco renamed their head repair kit, because going through their website yields zero results. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Update: Since people were clamoring for new head combinations, did some grimy research, found that Kobalt PRO90 flex head ratchets in 3/8, fit like they Belong on a Capri breaker bar. No grinding down required. So if you find a Stubby 3/8, or Break the collar that holds the head, on any other...

“Let the vultures have it?” NEVAHH!!! Thats when my 1/2” milwaukee 1400 m18 takes its robes off and gets to hitting lol

Yes I do. Alignments are a breeze when you can reach camber adjustments and have the oomph to get them loose. Retired my 5ft 3/4” cold water pipe after years of service lol Mac 30” cushion grip breaker bar HF 25” All chrome HF 24” cushion grip Craftsman 18” -G- I’m Guilty of “ Gunzilla wheel...

Believe it or not, Gear Wrench likes to make a semi wobble socket, or make a second indent. I purchased a 1/4” socket kit on clearance in advance auto, and it came with a wobble extension. The weird part is the sockets had a seating for “play” and then would seat flush on the 1/4” head...

S-K still takes care of their people like that, I recently had a 1/2” ratchet lose teeth on the tighten direction, it would only skip when you go harder than 30lbs of force. I emailed photos of the chewed up innards, and S-K sent me the complete unit instead of just the pawls and accessories...

And you are 100% correct, they were sold on countertops of mom and pop shops while the “good stuff” had to be brought out from the back of the store or unseen shelves lol. Plastic joint cases, big old price point BOLDLY NOTICEABLE from inside the case, (i still got the cases) And the finish is...

Bluesy Riffs for me, so viewers know I mean business. I am a S-K tool member and i love the discounts on the good tools, but that doesnt make me a hypocrite, because they do not make any air tools. None. Zip. Not even rebadged IR. I admit i trolled S-K in emails because their tools will...

I always wanted to Remove a BMW wheel studs with a 17mm 1/4” socket on a FLL72 ratchet LMAO...i’ll keep small woodland creatures behind the sandbags

As someone who loves torture test on the tools we buy, I always wondered why if a 3/8 Drive 19mm socket on a 18” flex head ratchet breaks while trying to undo a crank bolt (hondas are infamously hard to remove) the author of the review calls the socket or drive head or ratchet junk, poor...

I do care to an extent, seeing it was never picked up by Any tool truck company, and the Damn tools hold up, and I can’t get enough of them. I was Searching like mad for more info on the s-k air tools, made inhouse or not. And didn’t want to throw up a thread unless I was at least building an...

Update: 13 sockets later.... Went in as a day 1 member, the skinny: Im On the Arduous road to becoming a certified ford tech and need access to reasonable tools, still havent used the joining 25% offer, seeing its on EVERYTHING (one order, not one item) TOOL CARTS/ MASTER KITS ARE NOT OFF...

Piece of magnet at the base of the ratchet where the socket sits. If you want to restore it for the sake of collection, There is no easy fix, you just ebay challenger ratchets and include 1660 in search criteria. A bigger challenge is going to swap meets and flea markets to find cheap ratchets...

Sell online here, duh. Tone of people will at least give the sale exposure if they are local, and swoop in on good items. Photos are a plus, make sure the lady knows even the perfect tools are not gonna command antique roadshow money, so you can cover your costs. INCLUDE paypal seller fees, and...
