Top 3 tools
Ok crew ... got a couple of gift cards for Christmas and would like opinions on the top 3 tools for working on your 1st gen CTD dodges ... my old piece is a 92 w250
I have ... standard and metric 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 drive sockets (not huge sets but basics)... basic open/box end wrenches... basic screwdrivers ... wrenches for oil/fuel filters... specialty tools I have ...1992 FSM on CD ... socket for front hubs ... socket for rear axles... |
Axle nut sockets
|
I've already got the front and rear axle nut sockets ... any other ideas
|
Engine barring tool.

VE wrenches
Rear brake spring tool |
Milwaukee Fuel 1/2 impact gun, while expensive, it is hands down the tool I use most in the shop.
|
Sorry Oliver ... my gift cards weren't quite that "gifty" !!!!
How do you stop the engine from turning over without the barring tool? Or is it just a easiest way ? I'm not seeing the use of the "s" type wrenches... VE wrenches ?? |
The S wrenches are great for getting to the injection pump bolts for pump removal or timing changes.

I have the u shaped wrenches. Didn't have a pic of them, so I thought the s wrenches would suffice

A wifi or bluetooth bore scope and IR thermometer.

A good pry bar (hint: not Harbor Fist) and a soft face dead blow hammer, good set of chisels and brass punches always come in handy too.
