Since I bought my FD+s I honestly haven't used a line wrench.... they grab that well. Bulk up, It's probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to save big.

It really depends on the work you're doing. Ya, on HGs it's nice to use a 1/2" gun but I think a 3/8" is way more versitile. I love my CT8810 but also have a CT7850 for when I need it. The CT8810 can take of 150ft/lb lug nuts so I'm sure it'll yank HG bolts.

Heck, I've seen brand new Crapsmans in the store that were rusty. Ya, light rust, but still rust.

I'm pretty sure that's the same breaker bar my SO guy had a deal going on this week. Buy the breaker bar & get a 1/2" straight head rachet free. I think the price was around $180.

One more vote for China Freight... not. Hope that Milwaukee works well for you, they seem to have a decent reputation

Ouch! That ***** man. I like mine more every day I use it & have had zero issues. Glad to hear SO is sending you a new one.......hope it works better

Ya. When I bought mine I had my guy order one, then, last week he said the part # for the boot disappeared from his system.. it ***** bc my nose cone is getting beat to ****

Dang..... OP can buy a real box if he chooses to, sounds like he's sick of dealing w subpar boxes & is looking to move in to something that will do what he wants it to do. Give him a break

Good write up. Looks like your waiting on a boot for your CT8810 too!

Hmmmmm..... that's news to me & not what my Matco guy says. My Snap On guy had a triple bank w/ hutch on his truck a few weeks ago, I don't remember the model #, it was green & only like 2 yrs old, he only wanted $2600 for it.

I like Snap On roll cabs but I wouldn't rule out Matco. I have 2 of them & actually like the quality of their drawer slides over Snap On. But ya, keep your eyes on CL & you can find some smokin deals.

I have this Bluepoint light also & am thoroughly impressed w it. I paid $160 on the SO truck. Sure, it's expensive but it beats the **** out of alternative lighting methods IMO.

Ya.... I think you already said that above. I didn't comment on material failure, I commented on his weld.

I'm no pro.... much like you, self taught but I've picked up every ounce of knowledge from good/experienced welders along the way. That weld looks cold to me also, I don't see penentration in to the base metal.

It's cool to see other guys liking their 8810 too. Every day I use mine, I'm more impressed. I really like how it rips off lock nuts..... something my 4410 would moan n groan through or wouldn't do at all!
