I dont know on either of those actually. LOL! I used my torque wrench one time since I bought it a couple months ago, I'll have to look and have no clue on the struts.

I have an update. I finally got my sockets organized. Each size, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, and both 6pt. and 12 pt. each have their own rack. They are easy to grab and look nice. Also, I purchased a 3/8 Kobalt Torque wrench with a lifetime warranty and a Craftsman Spring Compressor for my upcoming spring install project. Pics:

I think this is my favorite tool and I have never used it.
I think I am done buying tools for now.

I guess he has money to burn. I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs. Fucking amateurs. :

Ok, so Christmas is coming around. This would be for my dad. He has been wanting a compressor for a while. What do you guys suggest. I think the most rigorous tool he'd be using would be a impact wrench. I dont want to spend much more than 200-300 dollars. This may not even be possible. I am having trouble finding one within reason that can run a impact wrench.

I've gotta bump this thread. I know it's old as shit and nobody has posted in here for a while. Since I've moved to Ohio I've been getting a lot of new tools. Since they don't get a "ton" of use, most of them are fairly inexpensive. I just got a 3 piece 26" tool box that I'm picking up on Monday. Hopefully, between that and the 26" 5 drawer tool box, the 5 drawer tool cart, and 1 drawer tool cart I have, I have enough storage for all of my tools. I'll post some pics later on Monday when I get everything set up in my garage. I think I'm going to need a new home for my compressor too.
