Glad to see this thread. I made the choice today to switch from FD+ to Wright Grip. The choice had nothing to do with the wrenches themselves, because the FD+ wrenches are great. But, I have a full set of FD+ reversible ratcheting wrenches and only 8 of the regular FD+ combo wrenches (8, 10...

I always had regular craftsman ratchets in high school, which broke from time to time. And then one day I bought one of those 84tooth craftsman premium ratchets (still have) and realized the difference between ratchet designs really mattered. Then I started to buy all kinds of ratchets. As...

Thanks. Just wanted to make sure. I did contact HJE, but wasn't sure when I'd get a reply, since it's a Saturday evening, and I wanted to go ahead and place this order while I was thinking about it.

I did a little searching on the Wright set #958. I found a thread from a few years ago on here, and they first sentence from the OP was something like "I got rid of my non Wright Grip set 958." I'm wanting to get the #958 set from HJE, but only if it's a Wright Grip set. Did they start making...

Very true. But, I get the 60% student discount for another few months, plus I'm figuring it will reduce bleed time by 60-70%. I don't think it will take too long to pay off.

First time I've seen a kit made like that. Definitely looks interesting. I like that it comes with so many adapters, plus a universal adapter just in case. Have you used this kit?

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll end up getting one. The way I see it, as mentioned above, if something fails under vacuum, it was probably on its way out anyway. I've noticed that some vehicles specify in service information that you should use this tool, although I know you don't HAVE...

Definitely strong, but I do want to share a photo. This is what happens when you use the FLL80 to loosen somewhat tight fasteners for about a month. And equivalently what happens if you use any 3/8" dual 80 ratchet with a cheater bar. Picture kinda *****, and it's easier to tell in person...

Not really looking for recommendations for a particular model, because if I get one it will be the Snap On one that uses the same adapters as the Snap On pressure tester uses, since we already have that and all of the adapters at the shop. I'm looking for opinions here. I've used one of these...

I've got probably too many ratchets, but didn't have one like this yet.

I was in Sears the other day, and I think I was the only customer around. I walked around for a bit, and then over heard two of the associates talking about how much they sold that day. One guy said he sold nearly $4000 worth of stuff that day, and it was still pretty early. I found it hard...

I don't know for sure, but it looks strangely similar to today's Blue Point and Sunex carts.

FWIW, the Grip-On locking pliers are the best I've ever used.

Made in Spain by Grip-On.

Snap On are good, and even though they're above average in price, they're still affordable if you're going to be using them often enough. I have the short 4 piece set, and now because this thread forced my hand, I went today and bought the Pratt-Read set from Menard's. They seem pretty good...

I have the Snap On set too, and I have an 8mm Williams wrench that is nearly identical in design to the Snap On wrenches, except it's made in Taiwan. I just checked, and those same Williams reversible wrenches go up to 25mm and 1". Check out their catalog. Just to add, I found the 4 piece set...

Shipped the socket out today. Tracking number 9500111167336037416930. Curious to see what kind of time it takes for warranty item to return.

People still do that, and it's still hard to find simply because of that. I've NEVER seen .22lr ammo anywhere (Sporting good stores, Walmart, gun shops, etc) because it sells out so fast and ends up places like Gunbroker for $0.12 a round or more. To get it for what it's really worth (No more...

Right now it's two tools and two batteries, but that will change soon when I buy a high torque milwaukee impact during zoro's 15% off day.

Have you done that before with Koken? The email they sent me specifically requested I send it in to them. I didn't think to ask about sending pictures.
