On this video I share my new tool upgrades I mostly work on Honda, Nissan, Mazda and Toyota so this video is good for people look for tools to work on JDM car.
Agreed 110%... If I'm wrenching on a nut/bolt and want the convenience of a ratchet, I'm almost always going to want the convenience of the offset as well. When a bolt starts to bottom out on a panel let's say, you either bust your knuckles or wrench w/the tips of your fingers with a flat wrench, why include a ratchet to do something stupid quickly? Just seems to me, if the companies are going to put in the cost to include the ratcheting mech, then you might as well put an angle on the darned thing as well. As you said, no offset has it's uses, but not commonly enough in most worlds to really necessitate a ratcheting mechanism to it.
Time for icon to sponsor you on full tool sets for that positivity lol!! Overall great video man I need to get my tools organized like yours 😅😅😅 Left a like 👍
Bruh! I have a similar set up. My Pittsburgh pro chrome sockets and Craftsman Chinesium 3/8 sockets have been awesome. For impact sockets I have been very happy with Tekton. I recently upgraded my ratchets to Gearwrench and Snap on. Zero complaints on my set up.
If Your looking to upgrade your screwdrivers I would highly recommend Vessel brand. They are JIS meant for Japanese screws. You’ll never strip your heads again since you mostly work on Japanese cars. As do I. Knipex it’s pronounced Ka-nee-pix. Also check out Koken 3/8 universal socket it’s a ball joint style. 👍
Check out Husky for sockets.... great warranty, decent tools. Im not a huge fan of their ratchets but as far as for their sockets, hard to beat for the money imo.
Great video and a very well organized box. I purchased a 56" husky tool box cause it was on sale. I only have enough tools to fill the top chest so far lol. I was looking for the best bang for my buck when purchasing a tool box and I pulled the trigger on husky.
@@CARSONBOARD that's actually a nice one too. I was originally planning to get that one then the 56" went on sale. I might get it to use for my detailing equipment.
1985 UP AMERICAN CARS ARE METRIC, 1985 AS CHANGE OVER YEAR BEFORE 85 AS SAE, 85 ANYTHING BOLTING IN ENGINE AS SAE, ANYTHING IN BODY AND CHASSIS AS METRIC, 1986 RETOOLED BLOCKS, EVERYTHING WENT METRIC CHEVY SMALL BLOCK WENT FROM 350 TO BEING CALLED 5.7L
Hope you took them jack stands back. Those look like the recall ones. And, I recommend you buy Tekton. No skip on most of their sets, price is cheaper and I feel a better product. The impact set your lookin for, from Tekton, is 50 bucks. Look into there rewards and warranty process. Buying direct is the way to go for Tekton.
Snap on ratchets are #1 tekton and icon seem to hold second according to all the youtube testing ive seen. Sockets tho I dont care what snap on lovers say even the cheapest brands use the flank drive now and have identical tolerances husky stanley and most other mid brands will last just as long. There wrenches are only worth the flank drive plus which if your a enthusiast they mar the fastener and thats a no go. Its the specialty tools you truly pay for its the development of the product and having a slightly better name that makes it worth more. honestly I have a set of older slim profile stanley wrenches that are the exact same as my snap on ones in my work box minus the flank drive plus. They may be the top brand but they still have just as much product overlap with other cheaper brands as any other.
Sorry, but those Milwaukee drill bits do not last forever, but great video. And snap on you can 😫😁 service snap-on ratchet. No matter what rachet I used in my toolbox I say lithium grease in the gears.👏🏾🙏🏿👍🏾👌🏾👨🏾🔧🇯🇲🇨🇦.
“KNIPEX” is pronounced “NIP” “EX” silent K like knife. 👍 for what you do with your cart I recommend getting more ICON stuff since your wanting to upgrade but don’t use it for work. I’ve been testing the ICON stuff professionally as a heavy diesel mechanic and they are decent for the price. Can’t beat Snap-On tho.
i have 7, 10mm in 1/4, 9 10mm in 3/8 and 2 10mm in 1/2,and 5 10mm wrenches....i never have gone without a 10mm.....i dont understand why people talk so much about 10mms.. i work on atvs....but best part is i paid only 15 bucks for all these brand new at the flea market..
the thing with snap on tools is that if you buy it used like from ebay or pawn shop even if you buy new from anywhere other than a rep or snap on website there's no warranty if it breaks, i tested their warranty and they wouldn't replace my tool because i didn't purchase from an authorized snap on dealer.
That's not true that sounds like a dealer just being a jerk, i have warrantied a bunch of snap on stuff i didn't buy from that dealer, and if they won't warranty it call snap on support/ warranty and tell them what is going on
That isn't true for at one point owned stock in mazda but ford never made mazdas other than some rebadges mazda and ford shared parts for a long time but since 2012 i believe ford and mazda have been unaffiliated (also ford used mazda parts more than mazda used for parts)
I get roasted at work for my harbor freight tool cart. I also dont owe the snap on man $5k
like the setup man!
The brand of tools doesnt help you fix vehicles so as long as you do your job right that's all that matters
It happens snap on is only a name good tools but not required by any means
lol just buy a snap on logo from ebay and replace your harbor freight tool logo one.
Nice tour! Highly recommend the ratcheting wrenches with a 5° offset on the box end. The 0° have their uses but the offset helps a lot.

Awesome setup bro nice variety of excellent tools!
Great set up....very organized yet your packing alot of tools.
Awesome Tool Box I gotta build mine

those new icon wrenches look exactly like my snap-on set even down to the plastic box
Thanks for sharing your set up. Ignore the UA-cam arm chair mechanics that are trolling you. Have fun working with your setup.

Great video man. Don't worry about upgrading to an SAE. Sockets or wrenches anytime soon because most American cars are metric nowadays anyways.
If Your looking to upgrade your screwdrivers I would highly recommend Vessel brand. They are JIS meant for Japanese screws. You’ll never strip your heads again since you mostly work on Japanese cars. As do I.

Those vessel screwdrivers are hands down the best screwdriver I have ever used in my life.
I know right !
Cool video
I would highly recommend sunex impact socket set 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 no skips great price use them everyday no issues
I was looking at the 1/4 impact sunex sockets with the magnets in them
My duralast with Pittsburg add on 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Check out Husky for sockets.... great warranty, decent tools. Im not a huge fan of their ratchets but as far as for their sockets, hard to beat for the money imo.

I've had my eye on that one at home depot with the wood top
@@CARSONBOARD that's actually a nice one too. I was originally planning to get that one then the 56" went on sale. I might get it to use for my detailing equipment.
Just seen your video. Those Jack Stands were on the recall list, Don't think Harbor Freight has an updated set yet, They will refund you your money

Nice set up dude but I would check out Tekton tools as well
Get the sunex set impacts

Snap ons pats expired on most of their tools, icon ratchets and sockets and most of their other tools are IDENTICAL
American cars don't use standard. Just the few parts on them made in America. Which is very little overall.
Great video and nice little setup. I also have the 4 drawer cart. You should check it out, I have 2 separate videos on it. It's packed full.
& where did you buy the Milwaukee ratcheting wrenches?
amazon

Lol that multimeter is like 100 bucks, you know professional mechanics use a fluke 87? It costs 500-600 on average. We use "nice" meters too
Half of that if one shops around.
Nice tool cart
Man once you get that half inch it will change your life , that torque just throws my wrist around , but real good purchase , just real too heavy
All my sockets n tools are in my tool bag that came with my dewalt guns 🥴
Have to start somewhere :)
all modern domestic vehicles use only metric???? lolz but diesel is a mix and a pain in the ass
true that!
American cars stopped using standard sizes back in the 50`s bro. American cars are just as metric as rice burners today.
American cars were still all standard in the 70's went half standard and half metric in the 80's went all metric from 90's and up
when i get my garage im getting a harbor freight tool box. tired of having like 3 bags of mixed tools.
I love harbor freight

All About DIY that’s not true.
Jordan Davidson ok👍
That's incorrect. Go to their yt channel and listen to them.
Bro that craftsman ratchet sounds like 5 tooth 🦷
audiophile10045 it’s about the mechanic not the tool man
🤣😅🤣😅
They offer 90 🦷 as well.
Ever heard of Nepros? Pricey but really good Japanese made tools. Check out ktc.jp
My dad had old Craftsman used crap out of it out lived him
You havent lost your 10MM yet
TheDodge610 funny thing with 10mm, what I do is spray all my 10mm with spray paint so they stand out when I am looking for them.🤷🏾♂️😫😁🙏🏿👍🏾👏🏾🇯🇲🇨🇦n
@@rejmonwilson orange?
My dad used to do that with his tools
i have 7, 10mm in 1/4, 9 10mm in 3/8 and 2 10mm in 1/2,and 5 10mm wrenches....i never have gone without a 10mm.....i dont understand why people talk so much about 10mms.. i work on atvs....but best part is i paid only 15 bucks for all these brand new at the flea market..

Mazda is made by Ford so you work on American and all cars are metric now
That isn't true for at one point owned stock in mazda but ford never made mazdas other than some rebadges mazda and ford shared parts for a long time but since 2012 i believe ford and mazda have been unaffiliated (also ford used mazda parts more than mazda used for parts)
30 minute video on a little harbor freight tool box, come on bro you are lacking in the tool department those tools are for oil change only
Thanks for watching!
The ignorance of this guy.
