New Brake Bleeder Adapter Kit by Power Probe. Anyone in the business knows this is the holy grail of pressure brake bleeder adapters. Pricey, but very high quality; nothing compares. This kit, along with a Motive Products power bleedering pump can really make some good $money$

I'm going to be selling the hell out of brake flushes and will have it paid for in about a week.

"All cars in my bay need to have their brake fluid flushed. It's dangerous to drive your car without having it done today":evil:

I have an Astro unit very very similar to that one. I luv the hell out of it and it's in constant use. By far the best and handiest light I've ever bought.

I've had mine since memorial day weekend and been loving it! I read on here another member bought extra batteries and a battery charger for about $15 on amazon. If I used it daily, I would probably do something similar.

It will survive multiple 10ft+ falls, I tend to knock them off the wall of the trailers I work in, bounces off the floor of the trailer and then skids halfway across the shop, best 30$ I've spent from harbor freight

Craftsman 165 pc Mechanics Tool Set. When I ordered this last week it was reg $149.99 however when I placed my order the set was $49.99. This set is now $79.99. Do I need this? No. But I thought I had to have this at that price. One of our grandsons will probably end up with it.

Given the recent debate on the merits of ratcheting wrenches I thought this arrival was quite timely.

The proto USA ones are the only ratcheting wrenches that have ever given me trouble (locked up).

Never had an issue with any other brand, even the cheap craftsman and gear wrench stuff, and high end stuff from Wera and SK.

I was surprised to see that these were Taiwan, but it doesn't bother me a bit. I've had GW brand lock up on me though. Quick smack on whatever is handy frees them right up.

You will know if you have USA proto ratchet Wrench's by having only one kidney left. I think the USA ones are about 600-700$ a set where as the others are about half that.

Just realized you have the taiwan versions. I paid extra for the USA models (around 30 a wrench). Just shows the premium prices does not mean better quality.

Assorted wrenches, liking the Wiha slide to close feature, hopefully they make a smaller version
