A few pretty essential things you missed: 12" steel rule Utility knife Magnetic pick-up tool Magnetic parts bowl
-
Don't forget to get extra 10mm lol
-
Best advice I was ever given when it came to tools was “buy the cheapest shit to start, if you break it or wear it out. Then you can justify replacing it with the nicer version”
-
Finally getting to start my career in automotive and so glad I found your channel. Thank you for the run down on tools I’ve been needing advice. Love how you are honest and speak like the audience is your friend.
-
As a professional auto technician I can say that this video would be extremely helpful for any new mechanic or even a seasoned tech. All the hand tools and wiring tools are a must have. The Milwaukee stuff is definitely nice if its in the budget.
-
The video I didn’t want. But definitely needed. This gets my hyped for the day I buy a house and set up my garage
-
One tool I recommend getting is a brake caliper compressing tool so you can do your own brake jobs, very cheap and pays its self the very first use. Also it’s good to have different types of lube/grease around like dielectric, brake grease, silicone paste etc so you don’t have to keep buying those little “sample” packets at the parts store
-
Long 90° needle nose pliers are my favorite for reaching hard to get hose clamps. Must have
-
You forgot an obd 2 reader, Really helpful with diagnostics and they have gotten cheap enough it's hard to justify driving to the auto parts store every time a check engine light comes on.
-
As a bodyman it hurt my soul hearing that 1/4” isn’t important
-
A Knipex Pliers Wrench is a great tool as well. They are like an adjustable wrench combined with slip groove/channel lock. Countless uses and they don’t damage the workpiece like channel locks could
-
A vise is a must. I don’t know how I lived without one for so long.
-
That is definitely a good use of my 40 minutes. Can we get a full on Toolbox tour/ tool collection video too?👍🏻👍🏻
-
Definitely pick up an impact swivel socket set! The harbor freight set literally changed how I work on cars. I use them 80% of the time now unless it's a deep socket. They dont swivel as much as universal joints so they don't get bound up and make it soooooo easy to get onto hard to reach bolts. Biggest unexpected game changer tool I've probably ever gotten.
-
Thanks for the list. I've just started getting serious about my tools and actually just started a new job as a mechanic apprentice at my work. After plumbing for 17 years, time to learn and master a new skilled trade. Slowly building my tool kit.
-
I'm starting to build out my Milwaukee power tools and after watching today's upload I referenced back to this video to see which options you recommend. Thank you for taking the time to do this!
-
Dude this is the work of the lord. I wish there was video like this years ago when I first got into cars and working on cars. You nailed it with the list and what is and ins't as important. Keep it up!
-
I swear Taylor knows exactly what I want to know tools, welders, wheels absolutely love these videos keep it up big man👍🏻
-
Man I have been watching you for years and literally just notice I wasn’t subbed, man I’m glad I saw that. I appreciate all the time you put into teaching and demonstrating, not skipping over the details for flash! Thanks man.
-
Great video man. I’m in the same boat as you kind of, was a mechanic for years then went to the military while building cars on the side now I’m getting back into cars as a job and want to go back with a stocked box. Thanks for the tips, always good to hear what someone else uses and why!!
