Proto 3/8 locking impact extension set (J7277L) is $103.70 on Amazon. Zoro list price $76.11 became $65.08 after 20% off. Thanks! Edit--I paid WI sales tax, hence the 20% math not looking right.

I recently graduated from my local tech college's 2-year Associate's Degree program in diesel. I too recommend a good technical college over the for-profit places you may see advertised on TV and such. There were students who left the college program thinking those might be better, but...

x2 on chasing threads. When you have a whole bunch of holes to chase in an engine block, a speeder with a tap socket speeds things up.

As a bicycle mechanic in the shop and on-site at races and events, I've used zip ties for all kinds of purposes. I use a 4th hand cable puller to get them tight. REALLY tight if that's what you want. This tool's original purpose was to hold tension on brake and derailleur cables while you...

Re: what did you do in your garage today? I'm a couple months from finishing my AAS degree in Diesel Equipment Technology. Today I finished getting this CAT 3406B fully torn down and checked crank runout.

Bought a wrench and Helicoil prewinder. Fast shipping, good packaging, great experience!

Hi Garagejournalers, My slide-out work surface has never worked very well trying to open and close it. The feel of the latching mechanism is completely dead and it takes some jiggling and pulling on different areas of the handle to get it open. I know the work surface in the Montezuma roll...

Sweet. I was not aware of that.

Got it, thanks. I'm still scratching my head about Snap-On's catalog on that one. That P/N is not listed with the other slides. You can enter it manually, but it cannot be found from the roll cab's parts list or in the online catalog. At any rate, I use a KRA2007 as a cart and those slides...

Hey garagejournalers, I have a current model Snap-On Classic 60 roll cab (KRA2407). I ordered a set of drawer slides to make the top drawer double slide. The ones I received are definitely not right. The tabs don't line up and they're not deep enough, so I think they must be for Heritage...

I have the Wiha PortaCrimp and really like it. It's definitely more money, but it's well built and made in Sweden. There are a ton of dies available, the only drawback being that you can really spend a lot of money if you want a bunch of different dies. I've just got three, one for open...

Is that the KRA6200F road chest? I was thinking about the KRA2405 for a top chest. It has about 14,000 cubic inches vs. 12,000 for the KRA6200F, although maybe the road chest could make the top box double as a mobile box.

I'm changing careers. I've been a bicycle mechanic for over 10 years and I'm now in my second year of a diesel tech associate's degree program. I went with a Snap-On Classic 60 from the student discount program and I'm trying to fill it with all the tools I can afford, since the 40-50%...

There's a "Harbor Freight Pass/Fail" thread that lists a whole lot of HF tools people have tried. Some good results, some not so much. See the thread here.
