Ok, who's trying this out first? Report back here! I think we need TTC to update the ball joint press comparison.
ICON Professional Master Ball Joint/Universal Joint Press Set, 20-Piece...
Are Icon ratchets being revised? There was a 40% off coupon a while back and the local stores were cleaned out of ratchets. I’ve been checking for weeks now to see when they come back in so I can purchase a couple I’m after but they never have stock. I called the store today and the manager...
I was planning to pick up some Hansen socket trays to get my box organized and noticed they have 3 row trays available. Of course I instantly think “3 is more than 2”. What’s the intent of the middle row? Mid length sockets (of which I have none). I’m concerned I would miss out on something...
I've located this toolbox for sale. Mfg. date is 2011 and it's listed as 42"wide x 18"deep x 60" tall. I don't know anything about the older Masterforce boxes so looking for thoughts on whether or not these were decent or not.
I just looked at new ones at Menards and they were quite nice...
I’ve got a few PI micrometer torque wrenches and really like the quality and functionality but absolutely hate the low tooth count ratchet mechanisms. I’ve contacted PI and the say they are “working on an upgrade” but that’s been long in the making now and I’m beginning to doubt it will ever be...
Does anybody store their micrometer torque wrench set at the lowest value as this info from Tekton is stating? I always just mine down to zero, or until the handle stops backing out. I’ve never seen this direction from any manufacturer before, but maybe I haven’t been looking hard enough.
This...
Every time I change oil in a diff or my boats lower unit I’m frustrated with broken, cheap, poorly performing pumps. Does anyone make one that isn’t a complete pos?
I'm looking for one of these wrenches. Please message me if you've got one you're willing to part with. I've got Nano sockets and I'd really like to have this wrench to pair with them.
Thanks!
Just checking to see if anyone has a new, or very good condition FL80 they are interested in parting with? I'm interested if the price is right. Shipping to MN.
Thanks.
I'm in the market for a set of metric long pattern ratcheting wrenches but stalled at flex vs. non flex. Typical automotive use, no one thing in particular.
The obvious choice is both, but if you had to pick one first, which is it?
I've been spending some time looking at ratcheting double box long pattern wrenches. A common feature I see is that one side of the head is flush while the opposite side has a shoulder sticking out. Is there a specific reason/purpose, or is this just to allow some offset from the work surface...
I’m interested in putting a simple tool kit in the truck (2013 F150 so of course I need tools close at hand). Just looking for some essentials to have with primarily while on road trips across the country but I’d leave in in there daily too if it fits out of the way. Of course it’s impossible...
After completing a project this weekend I realized a long handle ¼” drive ratchet would really be helpful.
Looking for suggestions on both flex and non-flex (non-locking). Weekend warrior budget; Snap On’s would be great but not happening, especially for a tool that would see minimal use...
I'm having a hard time understanding the use of a 1/4" Hex Impact relative to automotive repair use. I see people loosening hose clamps and other sorts of light duty tasks.
With fastener torques in these applications being so low, isn't it just as fast/easy to grab a nut driver or other hand...
I broke a couple sockets recently and need to replenish. Just checking to see if anyone here might have some. Looking for some nice condition Craftsman. The rest of my set is from 2002 or so.

I'm due for some new "vise grip" locking pliers. I have 3 or 4 but the serrations on the jaws are pretty worn and they don't like to grip all that well anymore. I generally find myself using them for round objects so the curved jaws seem like the best type for me. Use is general household and...
