JTC Tools for Tesla

[jagandballie]

Picked this up at the flea market today. All the tools are JTC branded and all the foam trays are stamped with the Tesla logo. I almost passed it up but came back to look at them again while the guy was packing them up and decided to get them. Most of the tools are brand new. I've came across JTC Tools before and known them as a cheaper offshore made brand. I assume this is a tool set provided to service technicians or factory workers maybe? Has anyone else came across this before? I can't find much online about them

That looks like what their Mobile technicians use

Very interesting find, thanks for sharing it here. Never seen anything like it in the wild but didn't know what to look for either.

Yeah I definitely was hesitant to get it. But on second thought it seemed like the type of thing I wouldn't see again so I had to get it

Did you name the thread after their website? https://jtctools4tesla.com/
I'd never heard of them.
It looks like those foam sets are probably locked behind an employee-only page.

My only observation is that the cutout for the steel brush isn't well thought out.
After the first use, the bristles won't fit back in the cutout.

I used to see JTC Tools at AAPEX every year. Taiwan made, decent no frills get the job done type stuff. They offered several BMW/Benz sets and specialty tools. I think I still have a couple of trim tools and a zero offset long double boxed end wrench set from when they sold off their booth's contents the last day of the show. Flat Rate Master would mention them back in the day. I guess the shop he worked at then had a JTC truck visiting it. Tesla and JTC, interesting matchup

I don't know when those tools came out first for techs at dealerships or the mobile techs.
But I have seen them in my neighbor doing any type of repair that doesnt require a lift. Usually in a Ford transit. They also have high tops with all of the equipment that replace tires at peoples homes now.
Seen one actual Tesla car with a set up like in the image below.
