Headed to Moab? Trail Mater has your back

[UncleBuck]

Lots of auto parts stores, as well as hardware stores, have tool rental/borrow programs. For a tool you are going to use as infrequently - like for a crank bolt - you can just borrow/rent it. Typically the deposit is the purchase price. If in the end you decide you want to keep it, you're done. If you really only needed it for that one job take it back and get your deposit refunded. I used to do this with Autozone. They have a 90 day policy; return within 90 days and get the full deposit back. Ended up keeping the brake piston tool set as when I started doing more track days, and resulting rotor/pad replacements, it was just easier to have it on hand all the time.

My local place didn't have a breaker bar or I would have gotten one. I did get the tool to hold the crank wheel still. The nut was torqued on so hard I had to use a 4 foot pipe over the breaker bar AND I hit the bolt was a torch for about 45 seconds beforehand when I finally got it off. If was the biggest bitch of all time.

Also, I like his choice if T-case shifters:

Those are some Expensive T-Case shifters

$55 each so $110 for the pair with lifetime warranty. You get what you pay for. He won’t ever for the pull that and it break.
