Toyota Technician Tool List

[connedale]

I am a mechanical engineer (automotive diagnostic equipment) who is tired of with project schedules, long hours, and a dry office work environment. My plan is to become an automotive technician. I plan on working out a good deal with a local dealer ship to work on Saturdays to do simple services and then move to full time later when I feel comfortable. I have some experience in a tool and die shop as an entry level machinist. Other than that, my only wrench-turning experience is at my current employer, which is limited since I spend most my day doing engineering. I have began collecting professional tools. I would appreciate it if an import dealer mechanic would review my list and tell me what else I need. Noticeably absent is air tools. I have focused on tools that are not as expensive as the ones that are made by my employer. Most of my tools so far are Facom (French). This is not because I dislike US tools, but these seem better and priced cheaper than my employers tools at my employee discount. So, advice on tools that are the best bang for the buck rather than highest price is appreciated. Here is the list of what I have:

1/2" Facom socket set (ratchet, 10-19, 21-24, 27, 30, 32mm sockets, 6 &12" extensions & u-joint)

Stahlwille open-end wrench set (6-20, 22, 24, 27, 30, 32mm)
