I just bought 3 new torque wrenches from HarborFreight. I’ve have my beam-type for a long time, but I’ve had need for some nice click-type for a while. There’s a coupon making them $11, so I bought a 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2. Only tried the 3/8, but it works well and clicks nice and loud. I also had a coupon for some uni-bits, so I got a couple of those.

2 torque wrenches, never had them but i need soon to replace head gasket and some other things where it’s a must to torque bolts / nuts to specific torque.
Nice to have such tools. Everybody has them, so i got great offer and bought them also.One is with “analog” scale (the old style) and one is “ratchet style”, with scale on it.
I learned really fast how to apply right torque with it.
It had nice instructions included.Now i will always use this for my wheel nuts, because i have brand new wheel bearings.

Just get a 2.5 tons rapid pump floor jack, heavy duty jack stands and 6″ digital caliper from Harbor Freight Tools. For the price I paid, worked great

Well , this is not directly automotive related, but since I needed this tool to put some more shelves on my little garage’s walls to free up space on the floor to be able to do repairs on my cars, I’d call it a “loosely-automotive-related-tool” 😛
I purchased a rotary hammer drill, since every time I had to put a fischer anchor in the concrete walls it was a nightmare with my hammer drill.
I waited…and waited…and waited for the offer in the Lidl discount shop near here.
And finally it came!
A Parkside rotary hammer drill, with 3 joules of impact power , 1050Watts of electrical power and a nice dual drill (one is SDS-Plus, the other for normal drill bits) and accessory pack , and its carrying case too!
All for only 55,90 eurosI have to say that not only it eats through concrete with ease (and no strain on my physical strenght!) , but it drills good holes, with sharp edges, very good for fischer anchors.
Also it doesn’t wander around , and more importantly, I don’t burn up a drill bit each two holes! :woohoo:Since I’ve purchased it I have spent more time in screwing the screws in the anchors, than on drilling the holes! 😆 :silly:
Lotsa more space on my floor to crawl around and under the car now!
So I can get MUCH MORE DIRTY now! :woohoo:
Live long and prosper you all (and stay dirty!)
