    Tool/Job advice for new lube tech?

    Thin wall flip sockets with a good warranty are worth the extra cash. Make sure they have warranty in case.they crack. Some Allen wrenches and torxs keys also. If you'really going to be an express tech you should be set on tools. Also, I can't stress enough in having a decent light. They'll want...

    Broken security lug nut socket

    I've had the most luck with the Craftsman lug outs. You tap them on with a hammer or sledge and screw them off. Then place the nut on a vice and twist off. Super simple. And I'm sure they have lifetime warranty.

    KRSC46 Series Roll Carts

    I have had my 46 for about 2 weeks now and I love it. I do general repairs brakes and suspension. The cart works great for me but since I don't want to use my top for my sockets like a lot of people do you kind of lose that drawer. Had a 26" craftsman roller and a matco msc4 that were both full...

    Am I doing something wrong????

    No kids. I'm sure that's a good way to save money. I usually only buy tools on sale unless I really need them. And no I don't make a lot of money but since I've slowed down on the drinking I can afford to spend a little more on tools. Especially since they help me be more productive by having...

    snap on KRSC46GPCM.

    Another thing I noticed with the cart is that since I'm using it as a main box having more drawers is a lot more helpful in organizing everything. I don't like to keep very big things or boxes in it unless I absolutely have to. So larger drawers were also a waste for me. I do love the stainless...

    Impact sockets

    I have both the sae and metric half inch impacts and they work well. But I would probably buy a cheaper set if I had to get them again. Plenty of guys I work with have the Pitts and they hold up fine.
