Re: Snap on tools + box.
i cant understand why people say snap on are the best tools.have these people tried all the other tools?have they all let them down?i dont think so.its a case of follow my leader.one person has a snap on ratchet and all the rest buy one because the 1st person says its the best ratchet on the plannet.

i agree snap on are good but theres other brands that are just as good,some better in my opinion.when i worked in bike shops i had mac tools,others had snap on,and i seen a few breakages specially with the allen sockets on swingarm spindles with breaker bars attached.
