    Hey there Vlad, just go out and get yourself a socket set, spanner set(ring and open end) and a screwdriver set. Thet's the basics and whatever you need besides those things get when you need. That way you're not buying tools you don't use.


    Maybe two socket sets, 1/2" and 1/4" or 3/8" drive.

For those who cant offord or dont want to fork out for expensive tools such as sidchrome or kingchrome, supatool seems quite good. Check it out. Matt

    SOunds like the drum in the UK mags they are always reviewing tools - SupaTool always seem to go ok - seeing that Sidchrome is owned by STanley and Stanley is big in the UK they are probably the same product (Supatool) as those in the Uk mags ...

    How long winded was that

    What about the pop riviter and some rivits [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]


    I keep basically everything in my kit, it's pretty damn comprehensive. But I've learnt from experience that the tool you don't take is the one you'll need.

    Does anyone else carry a hub nut tool???
