Right. If your car breaks within warranty and the dealer denies converge, don't complain about it - just get a cab and move on with your life. Probably not, but one can ask the same question from the other side - had Milwaukee just honored it on warranty, we wouldn't be talking about it today...

I agree. Harbor Freight, while they have cracked down on returns and people treating their store as a rental agency, they take returns without fuss from what I've heard. I think my dad got a new vice like 3 years in a row because it wouldn't stay together. :LOL:

No idea. Never been. But I bet they taste pretty universal.

That's what after-hours are for.

We're here for Milwaukee. Focus!!!

Probably worth mentioning since my disclaimer dropped form my original post. I am not the tool owner. Sorry for not making that clear in the beginning. Just here for discussion and to see if anyone has had similar experiences, or if this is could be attributed to being an isolated incident.

Yea I was being a little lazy. I dug into it after my post. Oddly enough, looks like Milwaukee turned for the better after the acquisition. Companies that don't honor warranty claims rub me the wrong way though.

Another +1 for the Gearwrench set. It's ~$150 so slightly over budget, but I picked it up years back and it's been everything I've ever needed (with the exception of a 10mm-1mm die added later on for whatever it was I needed it for). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000HBDW48?tag=atomicindus08-20

I don't normally cross-post as I just partake in the discussion on the originating forum, but since this is where a lot of tool nerds live - had anyone here had similar experiences with milwaukee tools? I am in the DeWalt ecosystem but there are some tools that aren't provided by DeWalt so...

Nice thumbnail... Didn't need to bring Paris into this!

I must admit I get satisfaction out of the ousting. Especially because I've had people laugh in my face for not using a SO torque wrench like they're the only ones that work accurately. I hope the HF folks keep ripping on the SO folks until the day the SO folks get off their high-horse (which...

Very reasonable approach. I'll probably try our reclining lawn chair tbh. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I might be a little too tall for that. I don't want to make another project for myself but I might end up making one. I want it to have wheels, but would like it be "lockable" so it doesn't roll when I am giving things the ugga ugga. If it had a mechanism similar to the movable staircases you...

Thanks! Haven't purchased anything yet, but am in need for sure. Even though the car is well lifted, it's too high to lay on the ground and too low to kneel/stand under it. An inclined creeper would be ideal so that you have leverage when lifting/loosening/tightening things. MaxJax sells one...

To circle around and close this up. On subsequent lifts the bolts loosened up every so slightly (and only one or two). Not like they did for the initial lift. So either a) the anchors are well seated now and they don't move any more or b) whatever flex/movement in the lift (post/base plate) has...
