Figured I'd start this to help someone else find some gems at the good ol' Harbor Freight! What do you guys like that you regularly or one time bought from there?
My favorites: - Their vehicle jacks - Nylon zip ties - Grinding wheels - Tiny spring clips for plastic bags in the kitchen - Corded 1/2" drive electric impact wrench (if you don't have air) - 21mm deep impact socket. c: - I have a tool cart that I got for Christmas one year and it works GREAT! --------------------  2000 GT-S 6 SPD... SOLD! |

I’ve seen a Snap-on 1/2 breaker bar break doing some of the things I’ve used this ratchet for. That being said, I wasn’t concerned if it broke. I also have the low profile jack and it has been great for a few years now. I’m waiting to see how long it lasts before a seal starts leaking, but I’m five years in and still good. I opted to put my faith in different jack stands though.
I tried the ball joint press once- should have just lit my $90 on fire. Bent the press immediately and the ball joint didn’t budge. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
