I bought a 50 piece for myself on black Friday. Couldn't pass up the deal. Wife was only mad for a little bit lol. She got over it.
I literally don't own any open end wrenches. Lost them in the move.
That sux that you list them. Gotta get some crows feet. I lost a ratchet in my van almost 2 yes ago, I'm still looking for that damn thing!

The ratchet I lost was badass! At the end of the handle, it had another type of handle at the end of the regular handle that you could twist and the head will still ratchet, if you didn't have enough room to swing the ratchet the conventional way. I hope I'm making sense.

Everyone seemed to have good luck with that hf bleeder. I have one in the garage I haven't used yet. Hopefully I don't have the same problems.

I bought a similar unit from Northern Tool not too long ago. It too was worthless for actually bleeding the lines. Great for emptying the reservoir, but would not pull fluid down the lines.

Installed my air dam aka snowplow. Funny a light snow flurry started and not something we see often in North Texas..I had to use trim screws to keep it in place and bolted down the ends since my truck didn't have slots or screw holes. Pleased with results.

Will start looking around for led fogs..I hope the smoked lense won't be a problem..I want led headlights but haven't seen anything I really like yet.

Couldn't do them today, snowed last night, but I had stuff to do. I was going to do them tomorrow, can't, it's going to snow again. Sunday it's going to be in the 20's, so I'll see how it goes. And stop bragging! Lol, I actually hate the heat, but it's nice to work in, your hands don't get numb.

Well you talked me out of it, before I tried. Gonna return the bleeder, and make my own with a garden sprayer. Already have the parts. I'll post some pics when I get it built tonight.

So here it is. Me and my son had a good time building it. Should work good, holds pressure on dry tests.

Cold sucks. But I hate the heat too. My big ass sweats too damn much, and having a cardiac condition, the heat just drains the life outta me.

Working as an installer for Lowe's, I'm stuck doing doors outside in the cold. Trying to schedule them right now for the next week, we're supposed to have temps in the mid 30's. Any colder than that, it takes me double the time, because I have to constantly warm up my hands. I had frostbite from handling a garage door opener @ 18* with bare hands in February of this past year, and it took over three months for my fingertips to "regenerate", as they actually died and turned black.

Give me a nice, sunny day, with temps ranging from 45* to 65*, and I'll work from sunup to sundown outside with shorts and a t-shirt on.

Yeah @Fosscore I agree the constant bragging about the weather is getting old. Of course we don't hear any of that when the rest of us are having our summers and you're miserable! hahaha. I've been in that part of the country in the summer, and all I can say is no thanks.

Come up to Alaska where the mosquitos are the size of small birds.
