If you don't mind ******* your time and money away on a part made by a company that can't get even the most simple parts right, knock yourself out. Everything made by Dorman gets sent back at least once in our shop. At home I save my time and frustrations for a part I know will fit.

I've had a Stihl Supercut head on my FS90R trimmer for the past 20 or so years. Automatically feeds the line and just works. Never a crop circle left in the yard. That Stihl trimmer has been one of the most dependable tools I've ever touched. Bought it around 2004/2005 or so, not long after we...

Harbor Freight fairly recently rescinded their policy to allow a current coupon/discount/sale to apply to a recently purchased item. They used to, but none of them near me will even consider it any more.

If they were it's a safe bet they would list the COO somewhere but I'm not seeing it on the product packaging nor their website listings anywhere. https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/48-22-9413 If you want to trust AI or a customer review, I did see this at the big orange store...

FWIW, from the other thread that leaked this, the AUG parking lot sale starts a little more than 2 weeks from now

Franklin ProSensor MAX stud finder and the official case for it. It's a big boy. I had it in my cart throughout Prime Days a week or so ago and it never got discounted so I didn't pull the trigger. Then noticed a couple days ago it was discounted 10% and they had a case for it available which I...

I'm leaning towards the lip of the drum wouldn't come past the shoes without putting an Astro Thor G2 on a heavy duty drum puller, cranking the air past 150 psi and giving it all the beans.

Are they going to work with Astro's 78301 stubby & their 78345 long flex ratchet for their 1/4" nanos?

I'd go get a salvage oem one before I even considered replacing it with a Dorman part, but that's just me.

No socket fits it. It's a drum brake adjuster. It sure as hell didn't get bent manually adjusting it with a screwdriver/brake tool turning the toothed gear through the hole. They are supposed to be self adjusting but I can't see that ever torquing it like that either, though I guess it must have...

I don't know about 'the best bang for the buck bottom box, but I can say that my Husky 52" textured combo I bought in 2018 is flimsy AF now that it's been loaded with tools, especially compared to my US General 42" that's more than twice as old. Just the sheet metal used in the US General is a...

Every compressor of mine has always an abnormally high level of water on occasions. They seem to coincide with times of prolonged high humidity and/or wide temperature changes, and longer periods with it on not being used or right after starting it up after having it off at 0 pressure it had to...

I just keep my Dewalt DWS779 mounted on a Ridgid AC9946 folding miter saw stand when I fold it down and put it up. Even sliding it in the back of the truck out to a jobsite. I rarely remove the saw from the stand except when I switch it out for my Evolution R255SMS-DB - 10" dual bevel sliding...

Yeah, Stanley acquired the Waterloo plant not quite 10 years ago at 1500 Waterloo Dr, Sedalia, MO, and have continued production there under their Craftsman name. Chris Fix (if you can put up with him) visited the plant a few months back Not sure for how much longer though. I know people who...

Impressed anyone ever managed to get 20 years out of a plasma. I'm not sure I've ever gotten much more than 5 years out of any hdtv/hd monitor of any type yet. Seems the more money I spend on a nicer one, the shorter their lifespan has been for us. ~$2k Samsung OLED made it two months past the 3...

I'm just posting so I don't lose this thread for everyone who has used it's opinions. I snagged HF's Braun version w/ 3 hubs a few months back when it was on closeout for $60, less than half of what the new Hercules version (specs seem to be pretty much identical except for color/name) is...

FWIW, I also spray the bearing assembly mounting side and a little toot down the speed sensor hole with fluid film, not just the hub face. It was common practice in every shop I worked at in my rust belt days. Makes a world of difference getting things back apart.

I would never consider using anything like paint, just because if there's even the slightest run or unevenness on the hub face it could, and probably will, cause problems with wheel vibration. I would never consider anything but a rust preventative like Fluid Film which is what the product is...

Astro Tools beerwrench.

Spray the hub down with with Fluid Film before installing the rotor.
