The only Problem with Harbor Fright tools...is that they are sold period. WHEN YOU SELL GARBARGE...YOU SHOULD STAMP IT AS SUCH...IF YOU CAN AFFORD HARBOR FRIGHT TOOLS....YOU ARE WASTEING GOOD MONEY....NO QUESTION.....

Harbor Freight bashing is really easy to do, but not always justified. The 12 ton jack stands they sell are excellent and a steal with their 20% coupon. There is plenty of junk in the store, but there are some golden nuggets of quality/value in there too.

They have gotten stingy with offering that 20% coupon as readily as they used to.

I know about the tools that they sell. Some of them are really great deals. I got a u- joint remover/installer from them for cheap and it has already paid for itself many times over.
I ordered an 8 ton air/hydraulic long ram for my bender. I couldn't find it locally so HFT was the only way to go.

Heck, I love their tools. I buy their pneumatic tools and have never had a single problem with them. Just keep them oiled up and press. If they ever do crap the bed I'll gladly fork up the cash to buy another. Most of the time I find them on sale for less than $20. Had a couple of hand tools that broke, but they even took them back without a receipt. Need to buy their 12 ton jack stands you speak of though. :)

HF tools are great to keep in the Bronco. You can replace everything you need to work on one with about $100. That way, if you do leave your tools in there and they get stolen, you're not out much. I don't keep my Craftsman, Husky or Snap-on stuff in my trail tool case for that point alone. What if I have a trail fix & I were boneheaded enough to leave a ratchet laying on the wheel well and drive off & forget it. Lot easier to swallow if its a cheapo from HF than a high dollar one.

I'll admit I get their stuff. Yeah they have some crap, but if you can get a tool at half price that you plan to use only sparingly then why not.

I abuse their tools because the are so cheap where as I have kinda babied the other top brands and have broke some of them too.I got 4 j-stands and a floor jack that I have been real real hard on and they haven't let me down yet.

Just have to be choosy with what tools you get there. I have their jack stands, press, sand blast cabinet, sledge hammers, etc... I save sockets, screwdrivers vice grips and the like for better tools. Replace the gun in the blast cabinet and youve got a winner.

Sign up for their emails and youll get tons of coupons.

I picked up one of their 5 drawer tool carts last week with the $149.99 coupon I found on garagejournal.com. Pretty good deal I thought. I'm not making money with my tools so I cant really justify a high dollar name brand cart.

There is always a 20% and many other coupons in the offroad/4 wheeler magazines every month.

That is exactly what I was trying to get at with my ramblings...

Awhile back,like a boob I over tighten a banjo bolt on the front disc caliper and you know the sound "SNAP"!! Had a fancy set of broken bolt getter outters from craftsman that Bob V.(old house dude) sold me(t.v.) They wouldn't budge the broke banger.Wife was already in Tupelo so she swings by HF and picks up $5 exstractor bolt set and she came in with said product and I had broke banger bolt out in no time!!;)
