Could probably get (and likely need since it's single use) two of everything.

I got the 20ton press, split the cost with my cousin to do the wheel bearings on his 05 taco. If you watch out for coupons you can get 25-50% off. Not much to go wrong with steel & bottle jack.

Its a tool that won't get used often but good to have when you do need it.

Especially Toyota wheel bearing stuff which I know i'll a bunch of. Good for many thing like lower control arm bushings. Good choice! And yup, Them coupons!!!!

A TIG welder! Exactly $200! I'm always wanted to try welding my own bicycle frames and while I have an giant Arc Welder I don't have a TIG.

Just so we're clear I was implying the torque wrench. Annotation tool sucks.

A bigger floor jack for my truck and a cam bearing intall tool.

Probably an air compressor and if possible, associated tools to go with it since that's the one thing I don't have that I would like to.

lol really? I have 2 at home. They are really good but start squeaking after a while even if you add grease to the service valve

someone else here put this welder here also. I tried welding for a while and.... well, I stopped before I embarrassed myself any more lol

You never know when you might get the urge to build a go-cart

No man should be without one of these.

This could really come in handy while doing bodywork.

I know i've seen once more than 3 ton's there. I bought a cam holder tool to remove the center pully bolt from here along with some plastigauge. I've only used it once lol

EL_ULY > JEM 09/30/2014 at 11:09

I got a really good one from here for like $250. Fittings, hose, and quick disconnect bits I "borrowed" from work :]

As long as they lift my car I'm happy. Everyone asked why I bought a jack from harbor freight, everything from there breaks. My reply is I use jack stands duh, and they're not from harbor freight. Not that I don't think they could make decent jack stands but I don't wanna push my luck.

duuuuuuuuude!!!! That looks like a fun weekend building something rad. Pizza is on me!

EL_ULY > mcseanerson 09/30/2014 at 11:12

Yup! Even with it up on stands, I leave the jack in position. But honestly, I think I can trust the jack just for something really quick

I agree, mine does better than my buddies craftsman service jack and I say this from using them side by side on the same job and watching his drop over time.

Sixty six point six, the number of hammers of the beast!

true but those are tools that are good to have. Besides I have all the basics, specialty tools are what I'd like to get.
