Got something I have been wanting. It will be very helpful working on lifted trucks. They had it 50 bucks off, and gave me a 80 discount for returning a 1.5 ton jack.

I need to get one of those jacks ^ just have had other, more important stuff in front of it so far

I ran to Hobo Freight yesterday for a few things after I got myself in a bind trying to pull the front diff out of the daily and couldn't find my manual pickle fork. Picked up a whole kit of pickle forks...

A compression tester, mainly for the hose to put air in the cylinder for changing valve springs/seals

A pipe wrench for stubborn stuff, some non-swivel 1/2" extensions, a pair of angle jaw pliers, a 16" super long pickle fork, a pitman arm puller, a fresh pair of mechanics gloves and some 11" zip ties. The best part was, I got some HF gift cards for Xmas. Turns out I had $225 worth on the cards, I still have $5 left over! Debating taking the pickle fork kit back just cuz that long individual one did the job. Not sure yet...

Forget Covid, we're all getting asthma for 2025!

Fu¢# Yeah!

I got one of those too, not so much for leaves (or at all, lol), but for blowing out the garage and barn floors. The broader area works way better than a blow gun.

Fun fact, if you hold a funnel over the end of it, you also can blow up an air mattress if your wife didn't buy an air pump to go with the mattress.
