I have done some brief searching and have seen a few cool posts, but I would like to get things together in one place. What is your favorite/most useful shop equipment? I'm moving soon and it is going to be a good opportunity to think about what sorts of equipment it would be fun to have on hand!
I'll start off with: A good heavy duty work bench A dual valve low profile aluminum jack Wall mounted rack for holding wheels/tires Wishlist: media tumbler (for cleaning small parts) do-it-yourself plating equipment 12 ton press bench grinder air compressor Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

Lift, yes... but which... 4 post, 2 post, scissor? IMHO I find the 2 post is the best for service, scissor is fine for 914, 911, bugs, etc., as there's nothing to work on in the centre of the car. To me the 4 post is more geared towards storage, where you don't want to leave the suspension unloaded. Downside of any lift is overhead clearance. We could have used that lift during the first tranny clinic...right Walter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
