Tools

[sf_carfreak]

Just out of curiosity, what type of tools do you all use when tuning your car? I went to sears and got a 150 piece craftsman set and it was enough to do my strut bar installs. If I wanted to do brakes and suspensions, do you recommend impact tools? If so, what brand do yo use? I tried taking the tires off and those nuts are a bitch...or maybe i'm just weak. Thanks

#1. Make sure your car is jacked up to start the nuts on the wheels. :-P
#2. Use an X wrench to take the wheels off.
#3. I think impact tools are very very expensive.
#4. You need more then impact tools to put the springs on the shocks.

you can just go to autozone and rent the spring compressor, and it's a lot easier to use with impact tools. I don't know what brand.
