Magnetic "beverage" holder. $9.99 @ Harbor Freight. Magnets are coated with soft rubber and can hold screwdrivers as a bonus .

Bought one of their Hi lift knock offs back in 2005 to keep in my work truck which was a Ford F250 4X4. Used it several times for getting unstuck and many tire changes. Never had a problem with it. Using a Badlands 9000 lb. winch on my '40 with only a hand full of pulls on it with no issues.

12 ton jack stands are pretty nice. Had to upgrade from the 6 ton pair for the height. Love em. Heavy to move around, but I'd rather it be that way when I'm laying under the truck!

I never warmed up to the design of their breaker bars. To me it looks like all the torque is resting on the pic that holds the swiveling head. It seems very loose and the U-shaped driver does not even come into contact with the shaft.
It just does not inspire confidence with me.

I like the Craftsman design better, where the shaft is U-shaped and the 1/2" driver fit snugly inside the "shaft ears".

HF design. Plus the shaft tends to taper a lot at the end, where I think the sheering force is at the greatest point.

The craftman ones are junk. Save your money and buy the HF they both have warranties

It's what I keep hearing about them since they are now made in China and changed their name to Crapsman.
