They're not top quality but for $20 you can't go wrong!

I agree, build you own kit. Below is my take. Know that some of those tools are not for every day use in networking, but who can resist getting more tools? Also, if you get all of these I realize it will be over $200. So, just use this list as a guide not a definitive list.

Thanks a ton!

One:

What is the benefit of a 3/8 set when I have a 1/4 and 1/2 set? The physical socket sizes are more or less all covered, I believe, though I will check to make sure.

My friend told me I should get a 3/8 set simply for ratchet size reasons - he thinks that the 1/2 ratchet is simply too big to fit in most places.

On the other hand, I have a 2000-model american car, so there is a lot of space... and I'm simply not sure that a 3/8 set will be able to take the torque I need to get a lot of things loose.

I really appreciate the advice, by the way. If you think it's indispensable regardless of the above, I'll get one.

Two:

What makes a very good screwdriver set? What should I look for? I assume you mean I should get a set of fixed screwdrivers, instead of one screwdriver with replaceable bits. (And honestly, as much as I like my screwdriver with bit set, it won't handle the torque I need for cars, so this is probably a good idea.)

Three:

I'll look into what channel lock pliers are. I have normal pliers and cutters. I'll get vice grips.

Four:

Is this a double sided line wrench that you mention? I have this set of normal wrenches.

Five:

I do have a bunch of nice bright headlamps. I find headlamps to be awesome for car stuff... light goes where your face goes. Would you recommend any other lights? I think I've seen some magnetic LED lights, where you stick 'em to the car to keep the light on a certain place.

Six:

I'll look into an electric impact wrench.

Seven:

I have a half inch breaker bar, two feet long. Do I need the 3/8ths? Same question as above basically. And I have the adapters.

Eight:

Great call on the ratchet straps, I keep forgetting how great those are.

---

So a few questions above, and I'll get ratchet straps, channel lock pliers, vise grips, double sided line wrenches, and look into an electric impact.
