do ya work on alot of fords? cause if so a good tranny jack may be needed j/k but I can see what specialty tools people have I have'nt been there very long and i'm still working on my ford certs so I don't know all the specialty tools people have for specifically ford. I know the new 3valve engines require a special spark plug socket

---- the red brick, buy a blue streak BDM


if you do a lot of diagnostics you might want to get a lot of stuff like that. Test leads, Maybe a graphing DSO, or other hand-held lab scope.

I just bought a 14.4 volt 3/8 blue point impact gun (279). The best hand tool in the world. Then I just bought a AL race jack, 300 bucks but hey you have to pay for nice ----. I have load and unload a jack into a 1 ton van 5-10 times a weekend.

if you do alot of suspension, they have that stand that cranks down the spring, i think they are like 500-600 bucks, i dont know if snap on would have them tho.
