Hello, I am a 22yo light duty diesel tech at a Ford dealership and to cut to the chase I'm looking for an out. It has nothing to do with the work, just the management. I have several places around me that work on construction equipment or heavy diesels and I'm just looking for some opinions as...

im in the market for a 3/8 air ratchet and im sick of slamming my hands on manifolds and frames. What do you guys recommend for air ratchets that wont bust my knuckles when im in a not so open spot.

So im lookin at buying some new wrenches for at work at im gonna get me the SO FD+ metric wrenches. My only problem is that they only go up to 25mm... Why? I need these for doing alignments and that means that I will need some up to around 32mm. Does this mean that I would have to get just...

So my lovely matco dealer at work let us lay hands on a new 3/8 impact thats not yet for sale. He clames it can put out up to 600ft/lb torque. All I can say after using it is WOW!!!

Im looking for a good 'COMPACT' jump starter for work for quickly jumping cars so i dont need to roll out the larger unit or carry out the regular jump starter that weights about as much as a battery itself. A HUGE benefit would be the ability for it to plug into 12v sockets to save KAM. This...

So im going to need a new tool box soon seeing as i just filled mine up. Im just looking around craigslist and such at some 3 bay snapon's and matco's. My only real beef with the snap on boxes are the lock-n-roll drawer lock. What boxes doesn't have that if any? does the classic 96?

Hi everyone, kinda new to the forum. Been looking on for awhile and its finally time to just jump in. Im an automotive student and i know that with the right tool, the job gets done faster so my question is, which one should I get? Why? I already have a Fluke DMM if that makes any difference...
