The innerds are rattling around like crazy, looks like a tight fit now thatvthe engine is back in there...

    Loving the M12 Stubby

    Used it all day on a Honda Oddysey engine job. Pulled every fastener including axle nuts and subframe bolts. Basically replacing my old 18v Makita. Love the autostop mode too.

    1/4" or 3/8" Milwaukee M12 Fuel Cordless Ratchet?

    I have the 3/8" fuel and non fuel. I use both equally..if I wasnt a mechanic and just a DIY I would get the non fuel. Smaller, faster, just use common sense when breaking loose and manually fastening. The fuel on the other hand, I can go full retard with it and takes it

    1/2 drive 6PT metric impact set

    10-24mm no skips is what you want. Deep heavy socket will put out more torque an be more usable.. The specialty sockets bigger than that you can buy seperate. I use 30mm 12 point (Toyota axle nuts) 32mm 36mm everything lol, good luck

    Best 6-7 drawer tool cart for money.

    I went back twice for the new 5 drawer in black, I said screw it and got the blue. They really are an amazing value. I wouldn't mind one of these though.

    My $60 bundle buy

    While it was a good deal, the flashlight is nothing special and it just opens up the m18 platform to me lol. This is the last one. Matco sockets and magnetic socket holders are awesome
