I wasn't sure what it was called, but do any of you know a better way of removing that plastic "tab" that attaches to the head of ratchets after you buy them? The part that spins around with the item label, etc. Like socket sets, I'd just wiggle and break them off. Wasn't sure if there was...

This might be a dumb question, but are there any recommended greases, sprays or hydraulic oils that are recommended over the others? There's a good chance that I'm over-thinking this. I assume(?) that pretty much all NGLI greases are the same, and #2 being the standard. Are "dry" sprays...

I was looking at getting one of these 1/2 breaker bars, and it seems like both are fairly new. The comments from the other threads seem to be positive in regards to the HF 25" pro, but I couldn't find as many comments referring to the Tekton. Does anyone have any experiences with the HF and/or...

Does anyone have any experience with the Craftsman 4-ton jack stands? I've read two posts about the 3-ton jack failing, but not much about the 4-ton. How's the stability, quality of the welds, etc?

Does anyone know a cheap source of plastic boxes for 1/2 sockets? Seems like the only way to get a box is to buy it as a set.

It looks like Harbor Freight has their Labor Day sale going on this week, and one of the items were their line of torque wrenches. I'm saving up for a Precision Instruments split-beam 3/8th torque wrench, and I don't have a lot of cash left over for a decent 1/2. I've seen both good and bad...

I was thinking of getting a cheap socket set to put less wear & tear on my US made craftsman set, and the harbor freight "go thru" socket set looked like it might fit the bill. Is there any reason not to go with it? Are they Taiwan-made like other Pittsburgh pro types? Last question, did...

I've read a lot of rave reviews about the HF composite ratchets, but I wasn't sure if that was the Pittsburgh Pro composite, or if it was just the regular one. Is one favored over the other? I assume that the Pittsburgh Pro would be closer to the red-handled soft grip.
