    KR-547 vs KR-647 Dimensions?

    Does anyone know if these boxes are dimensionally the same? The only differences I could see are the front trim and roller bearing vs friction slides. I have a chance to buy a KR-647 and I want to add to my KR-557/537 setup. What are these valued at, I know they are hard to come by. It is a '95...

    Snap On - Size Stamping Font Changed?

    I've picked up a few 2012 date coded SAE tools and noticed the font used for the size stamping has changed. First pic shows a 2011 socket on the left and 2012 on the right. Second pic shows a 2009 FD+ wrench and a 2012. Edit: I didn't realize the stylized '1' was always used on the 1" wrench, a...

    Any Bosch 18V Experts? Impact Wrench Question

    Are there any users here who can tell me if the Bosch HTH181 and IWHT180 18V impact wrenches are the same tool except for the anvil? The HTH181 is a pin detent and the IWHT180 is friction ring style anvil. Amazon is running a great deal on the HTH181, but I am curious if I could directly swap...

    For Canadians - JH Williams on Amazon.ca

    I've been surfing the tool section on Amazon.ca lately and noticed they carry a lot more things than they used to. What I found interesting is their pricing on Williams stuff seems to be pretty competitive even compared to US online prices. For example a 3/8" drive socket set...

    Snap On KR-24 Resto

    Started a small restoration on this box I picked up at an auction. The box was pretty beat up when I got it. Started with bead blasting to remove all paint and rust. Someone had pop riveted in some extra pieces in the tool tray, so those were drilled out and the holes were filled. The lock hasp...

    Used Tool Drawer On The SO Truck

    My Snap On guy always has something interesting in the used tool drawer, this week I got a 90th anniversary black MG325 for $90. Now I wish I had bought the 3/8 impact sockets he had on for 1/2 price a few weeks ago. In the past I've also scored a PT110 for $25, and a real nice MAC AH750 air...

    Snap-On 3/4" Dr. Deep Sockets

    I picked up some of these sockets today, I was curious to look up their retail value but it seems Snap-On no longer makes these deepwell 6-point 3/4" drive sockets. Are they only found in the industrial catalog? The ones in the regular catalog are all 12 point shallow. The part numbers are...

    OTC Enhanced Monitor Scan Tool?

    Just wondering if anyone had one of these and could tell me more about its functionality. I know its an older model and from what I've seen it only goes up to 2001. Can they be updated to anything newer? I read something that said it could read generic OBDII info up to 2005 is that correct? The...

    Kobalt Torque Wrenches?

    I was at Lowes today and saw they had Kobalt clicker torque wrenches in 3/8and 1/2in drive, $88 and $99 bucks. They are made in the USA, has anyone used these? They cost less than 'Mastercraft Maximum' here in Canada which are Taiwan made. Is the Kobalt Danaher made?
