I spent $13000 on snap on tools over the years :D Lucky my mate owns a snap on truck now hahaha

Oh J-RAD, If that shop has those trike things ill take 2, ill send you cash if you hook me up? Wanna buy Jack one for his B'day lol

I spent about 14k just as a 3rd year apprentice on snap on, spent more over the years.

But they do make good tools.

Oh shit! One of the Central Coast guys said that was the case a week ago and I said he was full of shit, I owe that guy an apology :/ woops....

Hmmm how do they feel mate? No scrubbing etc? Quiet?

Nah barely no scrubbing, comes close but not even close to as bad as it was.

Haven't road tested them too much yet, haven't had the chance. They felt pretty good for the quick spin I did though.

Was going to change the battery out for a free one now but not sure if I could be bothered... Ha

Easy to justify when they are your every day tools.... Awesome quality and a step above most!

i spent 1000 on my tools at work and got given 1400 bucks worth from the government for being an apprentice, wtf do you need so many tools for??

in other news, just split my wheel on the trike haha. the green machine ones are stronger and my mate told me id break these ones in like an hour.

off to kmart tomorrow. 12 bucks a wheel to replace lol

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
