Actually bought some tools this month.
I can make a videos upon request, but didn’t think it’d be worth it!1st. Matco flex end handled ratchet wrenches I bought after using another guy in the shops to get bolts out of a ranger transfer case. These things are sweet! Handles are super long and provide lots of leverage. I use them on 90% of cars in my bays!
2nd. Milwaukee 12v impact driver and 1/4 ratchet. I have to say after using my makita 12v set for 5 years I was hesitant to try anything else, however I couldn’t be happier. The impact will take off valve covers, intake bolts, and to me the most impressive was fuel tank straps on an acadia! The ratchet is only rated at 30 ft lbs of torque but it is super nice for interior work and small fasteners in the engine bay. I was pretty excited to get this guy and put it to work, the only thing I do not like is that it does not have a brake. They both use the new 12v red fuel batteries and the tools show you the amount of charge left. They both have led lights pointed in direction of the work. The batteries take about 15 minutes to charge and using them most of the day will need recharged every 2 days. Wonderful tools.
3rd and lastly. I bought a quik-spif air vacuum for cleaning out under intakes and various interior things, it worksl ike a vacuum lol, it has super strong suction and will pick up a full gallon bottle of coolant!
Thanks for reading these quick reviews, next time I’ll have pictures or videos.
