Anybody know how often the HF racing jacks go on sale? They have the 1.5 ton on now, but I'd like something with bigger capacity.

Torque wrenches: should I just get whatever's best rated on Amazon (~$50) or go to Harbor Freight?

My birthday's coming up and people want to buy me poo poo but I can't think of anything, so I might as well ask for tools. I have in my possession a Stanley socket set, some regular Tekton wrenches, jack, jack stands, wheel chocks, oil filter wrench because I had a stuck one once, cheapo Harbor Freight torque wrench, breaker bar, shop light I always forget I have, Home Depot multimeter I never learned to use and misc other stuff I use for electronics and computer repair. I really want an orbital buffer because I hate polishing/waxing by hand, so recommendations there would be welcome. Otherwise, what else should I keep handy?

Saabaru and NA Miata - both Japanese, haven't run into any torx or other weird stuff yet. Have bluetooth ODB II to my phone for the Saabaru, probably won't need ODB for the Miata. Any impact driver recommendations?

If you were in a hurry and needed to buy a hand tool (let's say a socket or something) locally, and your only options were Husky (Home Depot), Kobalt (Lowe's), Master Mechanic (True Value), Craftsman (Sears) or whatever is at Harbor Freight, which would you choose?

I need an impact wrench but do most of my work in a borrowed garage so I don't have space for a proper air setup (maybe some day down the road when I finally buy a house). Should I just get the cheap harbor freight corded one? They have three of them that all put out the same torque, I don't really understand the difference http://www.harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result?q=impact+wrench There's also this cordless Dewalt on Amazon that has good reviews: http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-Bare-Tool-DC820B-18-Volt-Cordless/dp/B002VWK5QO/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1408225151&sr=8-9&keywords=impact+wrench blk fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Aug 16, 2014 |

Never had a problem with the battery or the unit itself, though it's admittedly only seen light to medium duty work. I see they don't sell that particular model anymore, so I guess it's largely a moot point anyways. Yeah, I'm in Club Makita too - that grinder looks nice but is out of my budget since this is the only time I can see myself using it, unless it has a gentle enough setting for cutting dogs nails like the Dremel. Maybe I'll pick up a cheap corded on Amazon or at HF.

Doing a Koni Cut A Strut install soon; how burly of a pipe/tube cutter do I need? Anything in particular to look for? I'm cutting the OEM Subaru struts on my Saabaru.

Looking at buying a cordless impact wrench to replace my corded harbor freight. How much torque do I want? I don't want to get myself in trouble re-fastening. Choosing between 325 and 740 ft-lbs (Makita).
