I have the same set and it is awesome!

 

[devoncoolman]

I thought I read that somewhere. It is nice, because you end up with better positioning for sure. I see sets of them on ebay and always drool, but I don't do enough hydraulic work to make me hit buy it now.

Snap-on is very proud of them. But if you use them alot they are worth it. I have a full set of snap-on's and a full set of mac's. The snap-on's are deffinatly nicer and the 60/30 is more effective. But the mac's do their job quite well and were cheaper.

Spent some money last week.
M18 kit and now I'm hooked

Also bought this Bahco S330 kit for the truck. It's compact and looks handy. Sockets look very much like the Wera's I saw a few pages back. This set is 10-22mm.

 

[MattVette89]

Got this for a power steering pump replacement. $40. Works well. OEM brand, can't justify the truck brand prices for very little use.

 

[Strouty]

It is funny how some cheap tools can get it done, where others seem to fail before you even start. Of course I have never had a tool truck brand tool fail before.

Solar Battery Tester

I have one similar, no batteries needed, Solar is just the brand name

Dunno if you were being sarcastic

Sorry, sarcasm fully intended.

Used mg325 with a new boot. Plus, a ct8810a drive body to go with my 8850 and batteries.

 

[Dennis Leigh Henry]

Did you buy these new and recently ? Is it me or do they look rusty ?

I was going to ask the same question...looks like rusty shafts..

Asked and answered..

I hate it when companies don't consider the environment many of these tools will be in, and the simple but necessary step of providing some minimal rust protection for them.. I won't be buying the older red blue and clear Craftsman screwdrivers because of this. If you leave them out in the (cold) garage all winter, they end up rusting.. I know chrome plating is passé today...but do something for Pete's sake...

Used snapon verus with latest update and European! Gotta order my bmw personality key so that I can fix the damn airbag harness and replace reset the light in my car.

 

[Dennis Leigh Henry]

Some new flea market finds.. C Clamps (***********) were $4 (and add nicely to the other two I already have). What is it about having clamps in sets of 4 anyway? Am I alone on this obsession??

Also picked up a used flashlight (GE), cleaned up and new batteries.. hanging with the other emergency use ones we have. $1..

I didn't take pictures of the small Handy Andy pliers I got, but will when I get a chance.

Also, got the unique round wrench.. square and hex sockets, about 4 1/2" diameter (hole in the center is 1 1/8" dia.). Any idea what it is from?

[upgrading]

That Xcelite 44cg is kind of cool.

I was unaware they made wrenches.

 

[jeopardy98]

So I took advantage of that $50 off $100 at Advance and picked up some external torx sockets that I needed for some fuel pumps and figured the gear wrenches were free so why not.

I have the sae version of those wrenches you will love them when you need them! Otherwise mine just sit in my box all lonely and stuff!

 

[jeopardy98]

Yea I mostly work on import cars and motorcycles so metric is my go to. I can think of a few times when I would have really loved to have one of these so I figured I should grab them. Isn't that the point of having tools? So that when you need the right one, you have it?

 

[Chadwilliam1]

I bought the metric and sae verision of those wrenches from Napa and I ended up by all the singles online. It got expensive good luck. They can be very handy wrenches.

Like it so far. Already diagnosed a bad motorcycle battery. Got it from Amazon for $70

[Blown454ss]

Got this off the truck on Friday, it was a promo set. In the bottom is a free ratcheting screw driver.

 

[Strouty]

Was that a new promo or an old one?

 

[Blown454ss]

Not sure he was gone last Friday and I'd been off the last 5 before that one

 

[Strouty]

Are they hard grip instincts or soft? It it kind of hard to tell from the picture, I need to get the soft grips anyways.

 

[IH__COLLECTOR]

Can you still get soft grips? I was told only the instincts was only ones available. Personally I like the soft handles better than the instincts

 

[Strouty]

They make hard and soft instincts, the old style soft grips are not available anymore. The hard handles are grey and green and the softs are black and green (or whatever color you get).

 

[Blown454ss]

They are the hard handle (grey & green)

 

[Strouty]

I thought they were. I hoped they weren't. I found a new set on ebay for $107 shipped but I paid truck price for the same driver, so that is a great deal.

 

[jeopardy98]

So I just picked this up on ebay on a whim. I have no idea what model or if it is any good. I took a chance. Anyone have any ideas what model this is?

 

[DC631]

Picked up a new screwdriver set. Figured gear wrench makes some good tools .

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

I really like the tray that you get with those, not crazy about the shape of the handle though, so have not bought any GW divers except for a single T15 I needed

 

[Niig]

Snap-On dropped off my fix[emoji4][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

What toolbox is that? I want one.

 

[Strouty]

I hate the flip tops, those boxes are my favorite style, you can open them with stuff on top!

 

[vertguy]

Next up is a trip to the local welding supply for a bottle, then I am ready to fix a growing list of metal repairs

 

[tlpatter]

I'm curious aw well. I didn't even know they made em with sliding tops.

 

[DirtyWeRX]

I like this ratchet more than I should





Also got this recently
