I have a used, but good condition with normal wear Snap On 3/8" drive Dual 80 speeder handle flex-head ratchet. This is Snap On part # FSLF80. I'd like to get $130 OBO shipped to your door. If you have any questions, just let me know. Pictures:

I use a fair amount of brake cleaner and the Supertech stuff at Walmart has been the best deal I've found. Up until the last couple of months. It's been out of stock the last several months at our local store. Now I notice they've taken it off of the website. Does anyone know if it's been...

I need a new ball joint press. I bent my Harbor Frieght one a few years ago, and I've just borrowed one when I've needed one since then. However, it's gotten to the point that I really probably need to buy my own. I've had to borrow my buddies 2x in the last 3 months and now I need it again a...

I tried doing a search, but everything I found was several years old. My first thought was to shell out the dough for a Snap On, but then I thought about it a bit more and realized that my current Actron gauge is 15 years old or so and I've probably used it less than 10 times. Anyway, the last...

I broke my #3 bit to my Craftsman (Lisle) manual impact driver. I need a replacement and see a few alternatives on Amazon. There is the Lisle, but also a VIM set, a Tekton set, etc. They need to be a 5/16" drive. Do you all have any recommendations? I'd prefer to get a set that won't easily...

Does anyone have any advice on how to change the belt on a Hunter DSP 9000 tire changer? I have one for personal use at my house. Anyway, I've been having an issue with it slipping and telling me the wheel is loose despite it not being. So I took the top cover off and it seems the belt is...

Does anyone know where to get a short air whip hose with 3/4" npt threads? I don't want to use a 1/2" and have it be the bottleneck of the system since I'm planning to run 3/4" lines, but the only one I've been successful in finding is on Amazon for $38. That seems a bit excessive to me.

So, I'm considering this air compressor. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-80-Gallon-Electric-Vertical-Air-Compressor/1000528985 It says its a 240v (reviews say 230v) motor that pulls 22 amps. I know it's meant to be hardwired into a breaker. However, someone asked about using a dryer cord and...

I'm finally in the position to buy a new air compressor in the next few days and I'm having trouble deciding. I've narrowed it down to these two. This will be going in my home shop where I run air tools on a regular basis, I run a tire machine some, and I'd like to be able to run a paint gun...

Well, my 33 Gallon Craftsman compressor died on me again and this time it looks like the part that failed is discontinued and non existent online. This compressor has also been a lot smaller than I really need, but I've gotten by for the most part. I'm thinking it's time to upgrade and I want to...

What load leveler do you all recommend? I'm seeing tons of reviews saying to stay away from the Harbor Freight one. I've also got a friend that has used the Duralast one from Autozone with very poor results. So I know to stay away from the cheap ones, but which ones are actually good? I'll be...

Well, I went by Sears today to pick up some of the Craftsman plier sets on sale. I've been happy with the Craftsman pliers I've had for the past 10 years. Normally I'm good at resisting making impulse purchases, but with the big sales on pliers I bought several. One of the sets I was really on...

A local auction has a Rotary lift going up for sale tomorrow. I went and checked it out and it looked decent, but I don't really know what to look for. The model # is SPOA9N400 and the serial number is ARZ03F0792. Is there anyway to tell when this thing is made? The Challenger lift they had...

I've been looking at torches for the last couple of weeks and I'm getting fairly close to buying one. I want one I can use to heat stuck bolts as well as to cut. Most of the Harris and Victor torches I'd looked at were close to $300. Then I was at Home Depot and this Lincoln caught my eye. It's...

What kind of learning curve is involved with an oxygen/acetylene torch? Are they difficult to use? I find myself working on vehicles about once a week (I have several) and I'm often dealing with rusted bolts, broken off bolts, etc. I'm thinking a torch would be very nice to have, but I'm not...

Does anyone use the Harbor Freight axle sockets? http://m.harborfreight.com/12-in-drive-front-wheel-drive-axle-lock-nut-socket-set-7-pc-62842.html What are your thoughts? Are they worth the money? I was helping a friend that's a mechanic for a living over the weekend and was shocked to see...

So I could use a bearing/seal installer. With Sears surprise points I can get the OTC for about $43 + tax. I was all ready to order it until I went on Amazon and saw the Alltrade 948004. Other than the case it looks very similar and both have excellent reviews. It's only $29 vs the $43. Is the...

I have a Snap On Tech Angle TECH2FR100 torque wrench for sale. This is a digital torque wrench that goes from 5-100 ft lbs. It's in great shape and includes the storage case. It's in good condition with normal wear. You can find the specs on Snap On's website here...

I've slowly been building a set of 1/2" metric drive sockets and found some Husky sockets marked USA at a pawn shop. I picked up a few for $.50 each. How's the quality of these? I'm usually pretty happy with Craftsman USA sockets, so I'm just wondering how these compare.

I've been wanting a 3/8" breaker bar for a while. Does anyone have any opinions on the Gearwrench ones? I was planning to buy a used Snap On on eBay for around $30. After getting hurt from a 3/4" Craftsman breaking I'm skeptical of cheap breaker bars. However, a 3/8" one isn't going to be able...
