i was looking for good tool sites. already know of snap on and harbor freight. also i was on here a while back and somenone had a picture of the snap on valve spring compressor .. the one with the uprights and lever. someone else left a link to a site that had a similar compressor that was like 60 dollars. anyone know that site. i have done a search for valve spring compressors and didnt come up with anything.

 

I know of these two places:

http://www.etoolcart.com

and

http://www.northerntool.com

etoolcart has a specialty tools section for some not so common tools.

 

i found out what it was. http://www.thetoolwarehouse.com. ran over it in my history.

harbor freight sucks

6.00 handling charge and it takes 10-14 days for delivery not including weekends. ive already waited 2 weeks for my valve adjustment tool.

 

i bought my spring compressors from pep boys


boy was that scary. I used a PVC pipe to reach the retainer, lol. Putting it all back together was a bitch. and there was a few times I sent the keepers flying across the room.

but hey, pep boys tools build character.

but try snap-on.com (i think thats it) i almost bought a set from them. I think it was like 115$ for the ones that mount onto the head.

 

Yeah ejprimo, but the HF valve adustment tool is only $25 regular price and recently was on sale for $17. And it is a 4 piece. (10mm, 12 mm, etc). Anywhere else it will cost around 40 and up. The valve adjustment tool is probably back ordered, I got mine within about a week.

I'll admit their tools are not the greatest for the toughest job though. I've had them break on me. You can call them and ask for their free catalog. Most of the time with the catalog they offer free shipping, as long as you order something from the catalog. They will charge for handling though.
