FS: Tool Kit
Up for sale is my self-contained 150 piece General Mechanics Tool Kit. I was originally going to use this as my trail toolkit but need to finish my current FJ40 project. Without a running truck, there is no need for me to have a tool kit...
Here is a brief rundown on what is contained with the tool kit:
The new GMTK is a soldier-portable tool kit designed for use by any repairman requiring basic automotive-type hand tools. It is used by all maintainers in Career Management Field 63. The GMTK is also used as a component in the Forward Repair System (FRS), and is the base kit for the Multi-capable Maintainer Tool Kit (MCMTK) for the newly established MOS 63A, Abrams Main Battle Tank Maintainer, and MOS 63M, Bradley Fighting Vehicle Maintainer.
The GMTK consists of 150 tools including the following:
Square drive sockets in both metric and S.A.E. sizes
Ratchets
Extensions
Combination wrenches
Flat tip and cross-tip screwdrivers
Hammer
Flashlight
Hole/thread/thickness gages
Drive punches
Cold chisels
Pliers in various styles and sizes
All components are industrial quality. The majority of tools, including the sockets, ratchets, extensions, wrenches, and screwdrivers have a Lifetime Warranty against breakage during normal use.
The entire tool load is contained in a 4-drawer injection molded plastic toolbox that has wheels and a retractable handle for easier mobility. Each drawer has a foam liner with individual cutouts that hold each tool in a specific place, providing the rapid inventory capability required by the soldier. The GMTK can be inventoried in less than 15 minutes. The rapid inventory capability enables the user to identify missing tools immediately, thereby reducing tool loss and pilferage.
The toolbox measures 24" wide, 15" deep, and 18" high. It is one of theonly toolboxes in the Army that has been tested for durability. Testing included:
60" drop test (fully loaded)
360 degree roll test
Water, impact, and crush resistance tests
Cold temperature performance 24" drop testing at -25 degrees
NSN 5180-01-483-0249, supplied by Kipper Tool Company, consists of a green toolbox and primarily S&K and Crescent brand tools.
