Thread: Basic tools to work on your vehicle

    Re: Basic tools to work on your vehicle

    Portable Press aka Hammer.

    Aluminum or brass punches or drifts.

    Magnetic flashlight or a flashlight with some sort of hook to hang it under vehicle.

    1/2" Breaker bar, with a length of pipe for a cheater.

    Safety Glasses are a must, nothing like wrenching under a rig and have all the dirt/mud/crud fall into your eyes.

    Emery cloth/Crocus cloth, or Scotchbrite pads, to clean up burrs on machined peices.


    We the willing, led by the unknowing, have been doing so much, with so little, for so long, that now we can do anything with nothing.

    a headlight, one that has a band that fits around your head. you look like a knob, or a miner, but they are so awesome, especially when working under the vehicle, or over the engine.

    2005 Lexus LX470 - Stock for now...

    1998 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4x4 + a bunch of goodies. Lifted, Locked, Illuminated and Armored. Winner,"Best Offroad Truck" - 2010 Pismo Jamboree. It's been upside down and still drives me to work.
