    Thanks JoeMA! I think far too many companies (not just tools) are asking the question "how can I cut costs" rather than "how can I make this better". Hi, Loscaldazar. That would be ideal, but it causes problems when selling primarily online as we currently do. For example the Subaru...

    Can you provide a year / make / model for me? AST might have one, but I'm not sure. We haven't made an angle or offset adapter as of yet. We do need one for the Prius as that's the one our Toyota funnel won't fit because of clearance with the hood. Ok so the 2.5L - 5.7L and the Tundra...

    Thanks for the suggestions guys, keep them coming! I was at AAPEX as a buyer, that's where most of the tools are at. AAPEX is more of a business show where as SEMA is where all the really cool stuff is. If we were to do a booth it would be at AAPEX, but I'm not really sure we're ready to...

    Thanks Fedwrench. Using the same factories as the tool truck brands has it's advantages :)

    Hi, thanks. Yes, we're working on a "master set" of oil filter wrenches. The ones I talked about above need to be finished first, along with 4 other styles we're currently working on. It'll be about a 16 piece set, good for a tech or someone that does a good number of oil changes. The case...

    The shiny black would clean up easier. Here's better photos of these socket designs.

    So let me ask you guys a question. What's your personal preference on socket finishes? This finish will be for a line of oil filter housing sockets ranging from 24mm - 36mm in a 3/8" drive and have a low profile. These are primarily for applications that use the plastic oil filter housing...

    I assume it's got the 2.5L engine, those will both work great. I'm glad to be here, thanks!

    Thanks! As for the funnel, we do have an adapter that fits VW / Audi but it's not currently for sale. I'm not a big "adapter" fan, it's just one more thing to keep track of and not lose. I'm working on getting the locking portion of that adapter molded into the clear plastic funnel lowers...

    We're definitely looking to add a lot of new stuff in 2017. Our warranty process is pretty straight forward right now, we just send out new replacements. I'm hoping we can semi-automate it on our website to help streamline things a bit. The costs of warranty replacement from a business...

    Wow, I just looked those up, they are ridiculously small aren't they? I'm sure we could do better than that.

    Starting with specialty tools was a good option because the competition was much lower and it was easier to get our foot in the door. There's a lot of companies that sell sockets, some do it well and others don't. There's a couple factories I've been working with that will probably end up...

    Hi Guys, I just want to introduce myself to the group. My name is Hunter and I run Motivx Tools which is a small automotive tool company. I'm not here to sell anything, but I am hoping to get some input from the group on the topic of product development. The users here seem to have a higher...
