Not the best access from under the car. I'm thinking that if I remove the passenger wheel and go at it from that direction, I might have better access. Or possibly trying to fish the connector to the top of the engine compartment, that would be about the best case scenario.

That looks like the tool I'm looking for. Thank you for all your help! And thanks to everyone for your replies!

Thanks for your reply. I'm new to crimping open barrel type connectors, I didn't realize there were so many variations. I'm trying to repair the electrical connector for an oxygen sensor on a friends 2004 Dodge Stratus. Two wires broke at the connector, and I was planning on just crimping on two...

Hi, I'm looking to purchase a good crimper for open barrel connectors. I would prefer something that does both crimps at the same time, and is ratcheting if possible. I'd appreciate any suggestions you guys could give me.

Hi, I have to replace an oxygen sensor on a friends 2004 Dodge Stratus. While I was testing the sensor, I noticed two of the four wires on the connector the sensor plugs into where broken off. Instead of just cutting off the old connector and crimping a new one on, I think I'd rather just crimp...

It's a 2018 Toyota RAV4. So far I have jumper cables, jump box, tire plug kit, mini air compressor, breaker bar with socket to match lug nuts, head lamp, tool roll with cobra style pliers, vice grips, adjustable wrench, pliers, 11 in 1 screw driver, zip ties, electrical tape, and duct tape...

Hi, I’m trying to put together a tool roll for the car for emergency repairs, and was wondering if you guys could give me some advice on what to include in it? I appreciate any advice you guys could give me!

Thanks guys for all your responses, I really appreciate all your advice! As much as I’d like to pick up one of those powerful backpack blowers, I just can’t justify it with the size of my yard. Sounds like I really can’t go wrong with any of the brands I’m considering. I’ll probably end up with...

Hi, I’m looking to purchase a good handheld gas leaf blower. I was originally going to go with a blower from Hitachi, that had good specs and came with a 7 year warranty, but I can’t seem to find it in stock anywhere. So I’ve started to look at blowers from Echo and Husqvarna. Any opinions on...

Yep, I double checked Milton’s website before purchasing and it said the V couplers are compatible with M style plugs.

Thanks guys for all the great advice! I just placed an order for the Milton V style fittings! It’s a cheap upgrade, and I can still use my tools with M style fittings that wouldn’t benefit from the extra air. I also won’t worry about any corrosion caused by mixing different metals. Thanks again...

How about using a hi flow fitting on a tire inflator, do you think it would make a difference? I’ve got a dedicated inflator that I use just for seating the bead when changing tires.

Hi, I’ve been thinking about converting all the fittings on my air compressor and hoses over to the Milton V style fittings and had a couple of questions. What tools will benefit most from a hi flow fitting? Are there any tools that it would be pointless to add these fitting to? I never really...

I’d check out the Makita XPS impact bit sets. They seem to get a lot of good reviews. That’s the set I’ll be going with when I get my impact driver.

I just picked this one up as well. Excellent light!

Just wanted to thank you guys for your responses and all the great advice!

Hi, I’m building a work table to use outside. I’m planning on using 3/4” exterior grade plywood for the top and was wondering what I should use to weatherproof it. Do you guys have any suggestions?

I just picked up the Milwaukee M12 high speed ratchet yesterday! I was going to hold off to see if they’d be offering it in an extended version, but I just couldn’t wait! If they do, I’ll now have an excuse to buy another tool!

I have a Milton gauge similar to the one you linked. It’s ok. I then picked up a Astro 3018 and never looked back. The Milton hasn’t left the tool box since. The Astro might not be made in the USA, but it’s still an awesome gauge! Highly recommend it!

Thanks for all the great advice guys! I think I’m gonna go with the IR. I do live in NE Pa, so I’m in the rust belt! If the IR hits a little harder, seems like it might be the better choice for me. I’d like to eventually pick up some of the Milwaukee tools, but I’m more interested in the M12...
