Excellent score there.
The stubbies you got with both sets look cool.

Just got this beautiful thing in , cant wait to put it to work

I want one so bad.

Absolute junk.

 

[Stroked383]

Havnt been on here much lately, been super busy but got a couple new tools

Craigslist score. Like new wireless chassis ear for $150. (old wired ones were on their way out)


Matco 3/4 extendable ratchet should break off anything that I need it to..


And a new matco grabbing serpentine belt tool

 

[atwageman]

From EBay. The scraper is what I wanted, but the pic came with it as well.

Even though I have enough 3/8" sockets to do the job, I still felt the quality wasn't adequate compared to my other tools. This SK 94549 kit and the Gearwrench 80550 kit seem like the best bang for your buck for 3/8" 6 point sets. I chose the SK because I didn't want to get a surprise China made Gearwrench.

that thing is nice... its my serpentine belt tool

You made the right choice. What was the price difference between them? I'm guessing not that much.

Good stuff.
On my wish list too.

About 80-85 bucks shipped for the gearwrench, and i got the SK for $127 shipped.

Me too! Much heavier than I was expecting. So far I've taken 2 lug bolts off and refastened them with a torque stick.

The only impact sockets I have are a set of lug bolt sockets. Now I need a few more, and a swivel and ...

 

[priceman1414]

Took advantage of zoro's free shipping deal to get a 4.5mm socket. I guess they were out of smaller envelopes...

 

[JBradley500]

I also got the HF press, put a set of casters on it, some broom clips for the handle, and a knurled knob for the release.

So roughly $40 more for USA made quality. I wish more would do it. If more of us did that would send a message to the tool manufacturers. But the majority of tool buyers don't care and want cheap.

Absolute junk.

Why is it junk?

Can anyone explain how an angle gauge works? What is the L shaped this in the back for?

[amlv20]

Lol why didn't you just get the fancy tech angle torque wrenches?

That's what I did.

I don't even know what happened to the angle gauge that came with my old torque wrench set.

That pressure tester is awesome!the shop has one but I need to get my own because I can never find it and it ***** using my old pump style one for the huge coolant systems on today's diesels.

The L shaped thing is to anchor it somewhere to mark zero. You have to make sure that L shape doesn't move or else it will throw your angle off.

You can make your own... I'm cheap like that

 

[Zeroek]

Went TV shopping and ended up getting all this stuff. Got the Radiator pressure tester off craigslist. Hit Harbor freight up for a few specialty items. May go back there today if my account still has some money in it lol. Those Eklind hex sets seem nice. Figured I'd grab a set.

 

[Hako86]

As Hako86 I got the same tap set

Have you already used it? If so, do you like it? By the way, I paid 10 euros for it.

That's a little Parker regulator you have there. Be advised, there's been allot of problems with those. Hope you have a good one.

Cool beans!
I will say however that the bolt puller/steering wheel/balancer puller. Whatever u wanna call it....from Barbour freight is junk. I went through two of them before I bought a snap on set. It was either the shaft or the yoke kept stripping right out
