Hmm. My collection needs more standards

 

Take it you stocked up on 10mm?

 

Idk why all you peeps lose your sockets. Gotta keep better track of your tools...

 

Not this guy

My TWSS got me a pack of 3 as well last year.

 

I have one deep and one short in my toolbox, and another deep in my junkyard bag that I found at said junkyard. Still the same sockets I bought 5 years or so ago.

The things I seem to misplace but always find are my 12 and 14mm ratcheting wrenches.

 

I have 3 impact and 3 chromes. Deep, semi deep and shallow.
And an extra shallow 10. And 3 10mm wrenches. 2 10mm lime wrenches and 1 extra long 10mm wrench

 

Yeah, having doubles of most commonly used tools helps too so you're not digging out of one stash to use elsewhere.

I still have a philips someone didn't care to get back from me when I was at a pick n pull.

Was able to snag an OEM door handle.

Bet your junkyard is the same as ours where 4x4 Tacoma's are few and rare

 

Ooooh good point on the line wrenches.

Still haven't done my rear brake extension

 

Meh. I do all my brake jobs sans line wrenches...

 

Think your spark plug blew out.

 

I didn't want to risk it since the nut looks easy to round off.

Specifically the rear one.

 

Think you lost any real power and torque owning that 4.6

 

8 mile is that way -> https://www.f150forum.com/

 

4 wheeel disk brakes are overrated

 

I appreciate them on the full size trucks but they're also stopping 2x or more vehicle weight + trailer weight

 

I was doing some reading a couple months back and 300zx parking brake calipers would be an option if you find the right thickness 6 lug rotors... Honda Passport or Sequioa come to mind

 

Id be doing it just for the brake pedal feel

 

With 3/4 ton GM front disks and 300zx on the rear my jeep could stop on a dime even with 38.5 swampers

 

you want a squishy pedal? it's hard to get a good pedal feel with stock MC and disks on the rear. You'll go down a rabbit hole of residual valves and manual proportioning valves

 

The jeep I deleted the prop valve and went to a Corvette manual MC which was proportioned 50/50 for disks
