Worked well there was a small problem but easy to fix

This tool worked great as the name suggests there was only one issue where the set screw kinda loosened up a bit and the plunger started to to get out of the screw handle, was able to re-tighten it with a vise and tighten the set screw, and after that it worked perfectly, saving me about $800 on the purchase of a new steering rack and transmission for my jeep.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Tools and equipment will no longer slide

If you're used to screw crimping tools, this will be a welcome change. Some sets like this usually succeed or fail. But we were able to insert a good bell into the steel line without slipping. It worked on the first try, that was the proof in the pudding. Plus it's cheaper than Mastercool, that's all. I'm not a certified mechanic so can't comment on how well it performs commercially given heavy use. But there are no complaints about the work my wife's uncle and I did.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • I remember vaguely

Bending metal is fun

This kit is primarily designed for use in the automotive industry. It has other uses for boilers and gas lines, but you mainly want to use it in your car or truck.

Thing is… now I have this to give me options! If you're like me then you need all the tools you can have when working on a project. And when you work with a…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Expensive

I wish I had had this many years ago!

I hate making brake lines and when I remodel cars I spend a lot of money to buy ready made lines from specialized vendors and spend a lot of money. Those times are over, because now I can draw incomprehensible lines myself. The small hand tools are really a nuisance to use and I struggled to get good bubbles. It became a problem enough that despite the expense, I just didn't want to make them myself anymore. With this set, I quickly learned to make perfect torches every time. Now building all…

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Protection
