These trucks are easy to work on, well, some stuff is hard, but a Metric box set (wrenches, sockets, ratchets, and misc other tools, is really the best way to go, i am thinking about buying one just for the truck, i have a few misc tools in a bag right now, but its a clutter behind the seat, and i am just sick of having to get stuff out of my toolbox for a small repair!

No, he didn't Chris. He figured you'd want to use it the next time you fragged something.

Snapon & Mac are pricey, but nice. Craftsman quality has changed. I have an old Craftsman adjustable & it's looks like it was straight out of the forge. The new ones look like cheesy, plated knockoffs. The old stuff is better. And for prying, you can't beat an old Craftsman screwdriver when u can't find a Snapon or Mac prybar.

I think snap-on and mac are some of the best stuff out there but the only problem is where i live you might see the truck once every two weeks. which means if you break something you have to wait but sears is just a few miles away so just about everything i have is craftsman. if the truck came around more or you could just go find him locally then i would buy off the truck.

oh yeah...the neighbour drawer.

I have two chests, top 3 drawer dealy and bottom big roller, roller has all snap on socks, wrenches, and air tools...top has foreign stuff i use on press calls. Stuff I would willingly lovingly double use as a hammer when I can't find the bras. That's what I loan out..the 'top chest'
