Darn. Was hoping it was something I'd "need". I'm not a diesel or truck mechanic......

do you know, or better yet are you allowed to post the price on that socket set at the top? They look like they could come in handy if you dont have a pass through set (which I dont)

What is the overall hight on that cart also. Could not really make it out in the PDF file looked to be in the 40" height. Would that be a bit high to be placing few things on and working on? :headscrat

you better tell snapon to change the description of that IPR socket. The 94-03 7.3 diesels take a extra deep 1 1/8" socket not a 1 3/16"

been waiting on that socket to come out. i would just question if it would break the plastic connecter while breaking it loose. I have the snap on 6.0 icp sensor socket and it saves alot of time. i guess i'll have to get this thing.

Thanks for the heads up. Those socket's for the air to air boot clamps might come on real handy. Thanks again

What about my question on the hight of the Roll Cart please :drool: From what i could make out in the PDF is that hight a bit to high to use as a place to work on items. Like to get rid of my broken down bench and also add some more tool space but worried about the height? PDF looked like 40 some inches?

I'm wondering why they made this tool 2 years after they stopped making the 6.0s? Surely, 6-7 years ago would've been the right time.

Now that the trucks are out of warranty, more of the independent shops are going to see the trucks, and since they don't have access to all the factory tools they can use the help.

it might be demand for the tool. I know the ford factory tools are real expensive sometimes.
I get asked for older tools now and then.

yeah... my diesel techs work a lot of them! Even Independent shops tried to do but they had to sent trucks to my work to fix it up... even some of independent shops was misdiagnosis a lot and cost the customers a lot of moneys.. also some of independent shops wont do that work and told customers to go Ford shops...
