I've looked into the Gearwrench scanners, but from what I have found, there are just too many people having issues with them.

Well after a week of trying to figure out which scanner I wanted to go with, I decided on the Kingbolen K8 pro, mostly because of the lifetime free updates, however, my bank will not let the transaction go through because it doesn't trust kingbolentool.com. If I buy it through Amazon, it is...

I looked at the launch, but from what I read, they are not made for the U.S. Market and you will not be able to get support if you have any issues.

All the ones I have been looking at range from $500-$800. The Kingbolen K10 Pro also looks like it would fit my needs. Any experience with that one?

My newest vehicle is a 2022, then also have a 21, 16, 12, 11, 08. Both Ford and Chevy, but recently had a Nissan, Honda, and audi, and im sure i will again. I have 11 kids and most drive so I will be their main mode of repair as well. I have never paid to have anything of mine fixed, so...

I do have Forscan and have used it a few times. While I will continue to use it, a scanner would still be a useful tool as I don't only work on Fords but thank you for the reply.

I've been trying not to create a thread on this topic because I know it comes up often, but I give up. I have never had so much trouble picking something out. Picking out my kids names was easier than picking a scanner. I am a DIYer, and have a lot to learn, but I am ready to step up from a...

I didnt find much, but did pick up these 3 items for a total of $3. I don't know why i keep buying speed wrenches, i have atleat a dozen and have never even used one. This one I only picked up because it is Snap on. I also got this almost complete set of US made drill bits. Not sure of the...

Well my hitch is painted and mounted back on my tractor. It looks a little bit too Halloween for my taste, but after seeing the newest paint scheme on Kubota tractors, this actually matches pretty well. I have an Orange Kubota decal coming in a few days to make it official... Kubota...

Yeah, I couldn't have timed the oicture any better. Haha You are correct, the red attachment (now black and orange) is a quick hitch for 3 point implements. It stays attached to your 3 point. In theory it works great, in practice, it is not a perfect solution but still useful, as long as you...

Yeah, I knew better, but I wanted to get it done so it could dry all night and be reassembled the next day. Impatience is my biggest weakness.

Then I got the urge to paint my red quick hitch to match my orange tractor. I disassembled it first and then noticed a few concerning things. Apparently the shielding gas tank was empty at the factory. This thing had porosity all over the welds. And this part cracked on me due to the...

Well made a bit of progress on a few things today and then had a very annoying set back on one. I planned to use the trailer jack I bought last weekend at a yardsale, but it doesnt fit anywhere, so I found a camper stabilizer online for less than $30 shipped, and figured it was worth a try...

I don't think these red hard handles get enough love on this site.

Well orange really highlighted some of the bad welds. Should've gone with black.

I went back first thing today and he said some guy beat me to everything. He said the guy was snatching it up as fast as he was setting it down.

Here is a better picture of the laser i forgot to post. Works good and came with a 4.0 Ah battery.

It is. They never even took the cover off the end of the plug.

Then to figure out the top link connection. Since the hitch isn't straight, my original idea didn't work. I had two pieces of 1/4" angle so I tried a few things to do to line everything up. but then decided straight up and down would be better, I would just have to weld them to the back side...

Ever get inspired to make something even if you don't have a use for it? I did yesterday and this is the result... When we bought the old family farm, there was a Ford hitch in the barn that fit some old truck my grandpa had, and I had no use for. I knew it would come in handy, so I kept it...
