    anyone use their 12 ton hydraulic press to assemble coilovers? i want to swap the springs out of my 6112 coilovers, but i think i may need some kind of adapter to secure the shock mount to the press head.

    I need to pick up one of those steel jacks. Bought a high priced aluminum one from HF a year ago and it's leaking and squeaking like crazy because the cylinder seals have already gone bad.

    I’m still rocking my 6s that I bought almost 4 years ago. I had the battery replaced when they were doing it for $29 but it’s still not great.

    I think I live too close to harbor freight. Anyway more stuff. I only have 1 50 amp breaker in my garage so I needed a decent 120v compressor for plasma cutting. Working well so far and powers my impacts just fine. IMO opinion build quality on this is very nice and I'd say far superior to other compressors in this price range. Currently a super coupon for it as well. Also picked up the diablo hose reel. Seems legit.

    I also need to lay a bunch a "wood" ceramic tile in the house and contemplating the diamondback 7" tile saw. Will most likely buy the hydraulic feed bandsaw soon too. Fawk I need to move further away from HF lol.

    Picked up a 44 inch green cabinet tool chest for 320 last weekend. It was an open box, no damage and still had the keys. It was on sale for 399 and I got 20% off of that. Pretty good deal if you ask me.

    How were you able to get a 20% off coupon to work on that item? They can't be used on open box items, parking lot sale items or storage cabinets. So many restrictions on the standard 20% coupons. Curious how that worked out for you.
