84” Snap On Epiq Series (update)

I keep an oily rag specifically for cleaning impact sockets, leaves a thin film of oil behind and stops them rusting, wd40 cleans the rust off nicely if they have gotten bad

You should oil your tools a few times a year depending how much you use them. I clean and oil my tools with a rag sprayed with Kroil. I wipe my sockets, extensions, ratchets, wrenches, screwdrivers, and pliers. Almost anything metal in my box and some plastic stuff like power tools and handles. I do this about 2 times a year and it helps keep all my tools looking almost new if not new. Kroil is also great because it converts rust into back oxide or something of that sort.

Have the same problem with the Mac spark plug sockets. My Mac dealer was nice and just gave me a new grommet on him. Thinking if I get back to wrenching I will get the Matco or snap on spark plug sockets. The matco deep spark plug sockets are great and have not lost their grommets yet.

Go to harbor freight, buy some Evapo rust remover. Cut the evap rust remover down to 1:2, more water than solution in a 2 gallon bucket. Drop in rusty sockets. Return in a day and remove sockets from the water the rust should be gone, air dry with compressed air and lubricate with WD 40. No more rusty sockets.

[@sweepphreak]

the reason the Snap-On are rusting at an accelerated rate is due to the better quality steel having higher carbon content I am not making a defense for it but it is the reason or one of them among others

Give your drawer(s) a good pull. The sliders will allow your drawer out far enough so the back is flush with the front of your box, and therefore use all the space. Your sliders are just stiff at full extension, almost all do it.

[@justinclark6053]

You misunderstood what I was talking about! The design of the drawer itself is what I am referring to. I do get what you are saying and sometimes the drawers do stick but again that’s not what I am referring to in this video. I’m guessing you don’t own an Epiq series box...

Same time though matco is cheaper then Snap-on and still get a life time warranty on the same stuff you would with Snap-on.

As a starting mechanic while also taking business in college I chose not to go with tool truck brands because of the way the tool trucks act on the warranty process and just the mere fact of having to wait for them to show up. Instead I have found it cheaper and more reliable to go to harbor freight or get stuff off amazon gear wrench, tekton, Capri,etc and it’s been great and I don’t have to get on a payment plan or eat ramen noodles for the rest of my life. But nice box man!

[@justinclark6053]

That was a very smart, educated and well thought out decision on your part. No need to sign your life away on a tool truck. Over the last decade I have seen some really shady tool truck owners/representatives! I have also seen some really good ones! I have been lucky 🍀 and not really had an issue with getting tools warrantied. In my opinion that is one benefit to using tool trucks. I don’t have to go anywhere they come to me. All I did was hand them the broken tool and they hand you a new one, or order it. My snap on rep will direct ship to my shop or house for free!!!!!

You could buy a nice truck for what those boxes cost... Snap on tools are great but this is a box that locks up your tools, not wash and repair them while they're sitting inside overnight. As long as people keep throwing outrageous $ at snap on, they'll keep charging it. Everyone should get together and agree not to buy their tools for 1 year and see if they come down to earth with their prices! Great vid though dude!

[@stevenpope9304]

Since my sockets sit at home in my box and don’t get used as much anymore, I oil them with Remington oil wipes. But I’m sure a light oil or WD-40 would do the same. It’s what’s going to happen when they sit out side in a non climate controlled environment. It’s not Snap On fault you don’t take care of your stuff. You could use a different socket storage device and then be able to utilize the depth of your drawer.
