I was aiming for something like that, but ended up with a slightly less uniform look… the KRL boxes came first tho, and I can’t quite justify replacing them just to get it looking uniform. All bought second hand…

I have an impact driver, but never really have much luck with it... The rear hub nut on a vanagon needs to be done up to 500Nm torque. Under or overtightening rather reduces the life of the bearing so I found a 3/4“ torque wrench that goes up that far on FB marketplace recently. It’s huge and...

Me too, and as such I take it very seriously 🤣

Interesting, you’re one of the few people who run them front to back, by size rather than left to right.

I seem to be a bit of an oddity in my socket organisation… my sockets don’t seem to fit into the normal numbered racks. I really like the peg type arrangement as they are quicker but I couldn’t find a holder that was infinitely variable, so have to to use clips. Previously the rails with clips...

Thanks for the replies thus far all - mainly interested in ratchets rather than rattle guns, but interesting thoughts.

When not sorting out my tools/toolboxes/workshop I spend my workshop time working on cars - Land Rovers, VWs and whatever else takes my interest… a while ago I invested in a Makita 3/8” drive impact gun, and more recently much bigger a 1/2” drive gun. Both of which are great and I use a fair...

It does, I failed 😕

Thank you! I don’t know how many parts lists I have looked thru, but still missed that! I have had help from customer service, so will give them a try 👍

Does anyone know a part number for this part of a Canadian made KRA 40” topchest? It’s the plastic plug that closes the vertical channel - it doesn’t serve much function, but it really bugs me that its missing! I have the one for the other side, but I can’t find them listed on any drawings or...

To close this off, after measuring with the thread guages it did turn out to be 1/4-20 (1/4UNC) despite me thinking they were finer, they were in fact coarser than UNF… the eyes lie in poor light!

that’s a good shout. The Snappy website recognises I’m in the UK and only shows certain parts to me (this is the subject of a saga about changing locks at the moment…) and seemingly the Bolts arent on the parts list you link to. Thank you for pointing them out as 1/4-20 though. I will give a 1/4...

Not a dumb question at all, but definitely not the issue as you can see the pitch is much finer than either the UNF or Metric Course threads . looks like I will need to get the thread gauges and the callipers out. Some of the finer imperial screws are not that common in the UK, so will need to...

I have a Canadian made Snap On KRA 40” rollcab and top chest. Can anyone tell me what thread is used in a) the inserts in the top chest which allow the two to be joined together, and 2) the inserts in the Rollcab sides to bolt the handle on with? They are roughly 1/4” OD, and having assumed...

I have a slightly odd combination of a KRL737 top box and KRL600 Rollcab, and I’d like to give them a little protection in my workshop. Does anyone have a cover for a 36” stack spare that would be willing to sell on? I'm based in the UK so local would be great, but can shipping if required...

[first post, lurker de-lurking…] I have recently acquired a slightly motley* collection of Snap-on rollcab/topchest combo’s to replace my ageing Halfords (UK brand) cabs. In doing so I have also gained a really bulky set of keys as each unit is keyed differently, not to mention that the Snap-on...
