It's a re-sliced baby, not a click and die thing.

Some negative reviews are written by those who use it as a tap. It is not. Please note this is a rebuild kit, NOT a tap and die. The tap and die create new threads for something that requires a new threat step or entirely new threads, but takes more time/power/space and also requires more metal. This tool is designed to clean tangled or corroded threads. It's faster and easier to use with more bugs. You really need both, especially if you're a pro. So you need to clean up some Booger issues? This kit. Do you need new topics? click and die. This kit covers everything you need for standard vehicle sizes.
