The search function seems a little buggy when i search for tap and die sets. I'm looking to pick up a decent set that should cover most of my bases. I only do light work in the garage and mainly jap cars and bikes. Most kits dont have the M12x1.25 i need, so i know that will be extra. I...

I recently encountered a seized rear shock bushing. I pretty much destroyed most of it. So now i need to drive it out and install a new one. Parts should be in mid-week and i need this done by the weekend. So this is what i'm dealing with. The bolt that holds my shock to my rear spindle...

I have a 2-4 year old craftsman 26 or 33 gal compressor. Its one of the oil-less quiet motor ones that you see on sale for $300 or so. Its been great for me these past years but i never put it to a stress test, mainly impact wrench which is just burst of stuff. Today i picked up a cutoff wheel...

I know they are cheap like $20-40. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004KL0I9I/?tag=atomicindus08-20 looks something like this. Works with your smartphone or bluetooth laptop. I have a legit elmscan cable version of thing but i now want a bluetooth unit and play with my smartphone. From what i read...

I'm looking to pick up an item for a good friend. He doesn't have an air compressor and seems to hate the corded one he has, even if it did the job. :headscrat Seems $70 pepboys Goodyear 24v impact rated at 200ft lbs could really do about 140-145lb. I was also looking around i could piece...

seems my 20x20 garage wont be able to fit all the **** i have and two cars. So i'm going to venture out into looking at outdoor sheds and put my motorcycle, lawnmower, garden hoses and a bicycle in there. Being in chicago it will need to withstand the harsh winters, maybe possible theft, i'm...

how often does something like this work... ( 3 or 4 or 5 legs LOL ) Or how strong are these boots? Can i use any boot or must it be one of their boots. for the most part when i get a axle boot thats ripped/broken, i normally just go out and replace them. Lately i've had a string of bad...

let me know what you have. i rather have one with a built-in extention but willing to take w/e

I know they aren't exactly on top of their game with this but ok before we would get maybe a 4-5 page little thing in the mail. I got one last week. it was just a card. 5 items on the front and 3 coupons on the back. It does tell me club days are 14-19 of feb. tells me to go online to...

I got a 20x20 BRICK garage. Its not insulated and has some air gaps. Using what i have now i wanted to get a small heater to make the few times i work in the garage a little better. I currently use a 1500w electic heater that i bring and place about 2 feet behind me. It works somewhat decent...

I'm a weekend wrencher now in a small 20x20 garage that doesn't have a work bench or anything. I have a 26in c-man griplatch ball bearing upper and lower box its about 75% filled up. I've been thinking lately of buying a that HF box and use it as a box/work bench on top, rather then buying a...

I have a craftsman garage door opener. 1/2 HP made in 01/00 model is 139.53971SRT The gear just stripped just about completely now. http://www.prodoorparts.com/uploads/products/hi-res/Pro%20Door%20Parts%2011%2017%202007%200561.JPG Gear looks VERY close to that but its not the one for my...

looking for this tool, Guy said its a snap-on, I need to do this repair should be a one time use thing, i rather not buy snap-on. This is for a "compression rod bushing" on a infiniti G35. I need to press the busing in and out. I just assume "bushing driver/puller/installer" is the name of...

I broke a 1/2 of a stud between the plenum and my manifold. There is about half and inch of stud, My first attack was vicegrips and to twist it out but all that did was round off/strip all the thread. A standard 10mm nut goes to the stud.... here is the shot. I assume this stud is...

My massage chair plug split on me a while back. Looking at it i thought to myself this should be a easy repair. 2 wires, one should be power and one should be ground. It plugs into a wall outlet via 2 prong. So i thought i would just strip and connect them to see if they work and it didn't...

I recently found a small metal toolbox. This this is 9.9/10 mint. NEVER used. UTI sent me this along with some tools. I never cared to use it. Just took it out the box and its been moving with me everywhere...

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CMF4J8/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I saw this at wal-mart the other day. Not the same brand but give or take. Think its worth it for $20-25 i was going to buy another breaker bar just mainly for my car but this might be slightly a better deal. Or would this be a likely...
