I work as a hydraulic field technician. This bar is very versatile and tough. The extension is great when you need it longer, the indexing head makes it easier to get leverage at angles that wouldn't be possible with straight heads, and it's built very sturdy. If you use tools to pry, get more leverage, and realign parts, this bar is great. Plus, being Gearwrench, it has a lifetime warranty. And on another note, this same bar is $200 on the Matco truck, only other place I've seen it.See full review
