this video is gold and sold me on this cart through laughter

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Jesse Berrios that’s awesome. I’m glad you like the video. Let me know how you like the cart.

[@tuco86x]

I put strong flat magnets behind each of my drawers so when I close it, it shuts hard. There's enough clearance between the back of the drawer and the back of the cart that the other side of the magnet doesn't actually contact it but its magnetic pull does.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Tuco 21 I’ve heard of that. It does make a lot of sense. Thanks for adding your tip.

[@ericg5877]

Dude that's low-key freaking genius

[@williamblack1137]

I just have started working on small engines. So the tool list grows. So the tool box that is best for me is a cart and the mods you have shown automatically make my brain go into I could use it for this and that. Like the extra screwdriver holder and power strip. For me I got to have the magnetic disposable glove holder. Thanks for the video that it was really helpful may God bless yall.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

William Black I bet the glove holder would fit nicely next to the screwdriver holder. Thanks for watching and commenting. I’m glad I could help you.

That’s the same stare I’d get from my boss at my first job when I didn’t know what I was doing.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Mr Everything i hope you caught on because Jared didn’t. 😂

[@Mr.Everything]

Usually it was because his directions were vague and both him and his dad owned the business and often times his dad would tell me to do something one way and then he'd be pissed that I did it that way and want it redone the opposite way. And my name is Jared too which makes this even better.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Mr Everything always do it the way the guy who signs your paycheck wants it don’t. I’m literally pointing where I want my Jared to film and he’s not catching on.

[@wb1453]

I did the caster mod and moved the locking casters so they would be on the “front” when you’re facing the drawers. Works way better then leaving them on the side. Nice cart!

[@BringItMuscleCars]

WB I noticed that in some other videos. Well with 4 swivel casters it’s easy to move around

[@wb1453]

@@BringItMuscleCars thats what i was saying. 4 swivel casters but move one of the original locking ones diagonally. That way you have 4 swivel casters and the two locking ones on the front, drawers side of the cart

[@DaleLucid]

One of my first videos was 5 mods for this cart. I came up with a way to defeat the lock temporarily so that you can use the top as a work surface but still access the drawers. You can reverse it so that the cart and tools can be secured.

[@Menamejosh]

great ideas I have done the lock mod from dale lucid and I raised my box up one hole on the frame by drilling new bottom holes and leaving the top holes above the frame but bolted with the inside L bracket supports it helps taller people and I have more access in the bottom also the holes for screwdrivers on the side some are too large we use big washers to make it smaller and the harbor freight wire pliers rack is a great space saver another tech at my work enclosed the bottom and put a lock on it

I used the US General magnet strips but I mounted them with 3M command straps rated for 16lbs because I definitely didn't want to drill into the lid. I have 4 strips that hold my ratcheting wrenches so I could have 2 points of contact for the SAE and Metric sets

[@themurphrees3795]

Just bought this same cart, and I am about to start decking it out with mods. The shelf will definitely be the first add on.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

It’s a great cart. You’re going to love it.

[@shawng7902]

If you dont want to buy the shelf, my dad made his out of a flat cookie sheet. I didnt have one of those so I used a big 24x12 or so size baking pan painted black. Looks better than it sounds. And now I have a 2" deep lip around my side shelf to hold everything. Used some west coast mirror supports. Loaded it full of air tools and nothing will slide off it like the flat shelf.

[@doylee469]

A good mod is to take the “magnetic tool holder” Harbor Freight sells or sometimes give away for free, and drill the holes on the sides of the magnetic tool holder just a little larger. The holes line up perfectly with where the handle bolts to the cart

[@driftpunk697]

It's also perfect distance to attach with the stock bolts vertically along the front rails (bottom of the 2 top holes to the hole for the front drawer support bolts)

[@toolsmetals2148]

To fit the pry bars in the side Compartment you half to use a #12 Step Bit to bore the holes a little wider in order to make the pry bars fit and it has to be done from under the compartment in the same area you placed the strip in

[@dennism9814]

I added the 16" side cabinet to mine, enclosed the bottom shelf with aluminum diamonds plate and locking doors. Added a wood top and vise. modified the frame to center casters under side cabinet to keep cart balanced. modified the locks so drawers can open with top closed, but can still make cart lock if needed.

[@WesleyDropDead]

Have you posted pictures of it anywhere that I would be able to see it?

[@OLCoachSmith63]

I have the 4 drawer cart. I roll it from my shed to my driveway through grass, so I upgraded the wheels to larger/rubber wheels. I added the HF magnet bars screwed through the lid to hold my wrenches. I also added the side tray & magnetic blocks to keep the tray from banging while going through the grass. I'm definitely interested in the magnetic socket holders. That's one of the main issues I still have with my cart going through grass. I also may look into expanding the wheel base because with the higher center of gravity due to the new wheels - it can get interesting when I hit a big bump in the yard lol. About to watch the video on the side cabinet which I would like to do - but not sure if my setup can handle that extra weight

[@BringItMuscleCars]

eric smith. I have been looking at adding the larger rubber wheels from Harbor Freight. They sell some that have the same bolt pattern. If I do it I’ll add them to the side cabinet too. Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate the support.

[@OLCoachSmith63]

@@BringItMuscleCars mine were a different bolt pattern. So I had to drill some new holes, but wasn't a big deal. 100% recommend. Wouldn't be able to take my cart through the yard without them. Even on concrete they would be smoother/quieter

[@BringItMuscleCars]

eric smith. That’s good to know. I think I’m going to go that route.

[@Alanthe918mobilemechanic]

As for magnets all you need to do is get the cheap Harbor Freight ones put them back-to-back and bolt them together that way they become magnetic on both sides so you can hang it up and hang your tools on it they are cheap enough you can buy tons of them

[@beardedgarage]

i've got the same cart, great video

Thank you.

[@jarchambault69]

There is a difference between modifying and just adding accessories. That being said, good advice.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

evan m thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate the support. What are you going to get instead of the cart.

[@evanm9026]

Bring It Muscle Cars I got a snap on tool cart. I out grew my HF cart. I made mods to the HB cart and really liked it but Needed way more room. I had flat magnetic panels on the lid and placed my wrenches on the lid. And another flat magnetic panel on the tray so bolts and tools wouldn’t roll off etc. But the extra room helps a lot more. 👍🏽

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Steven Jackson I maybe getting rid of my handle too. I’m adding the side cabinet next.

[@TheHandsomeRyan]

Some good tips in there. Is there a reason you installed the pneumatic cylinders for the lid "outboard" rather than inboard like the directions? It seems like they would hit the handles of anything you have hanging on those edge holes. I'll certainly check out some of the items you used in this video. Thanks!

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Ryan Cooper I had some bigger things in the way. Now that I got some of the Doyle screw drivers they are hitting them. I’ll probably switch them around now that I’ve cleaned the box up some.

[@bengardiner3867]

I had some 3/4 Partical Board that I cut to fit the top of the lid. You could use epoxy to fasten it but I drilled thru both wood and the lid. T-nuts on the top side (recessed) and bolted from the inside. If concerned about rust, you could use silicone around the drilled holes in the top. The wood has a 45 degree bevel to reduce chipping. I used a whole can of urathane to seal the wood top. You could do the same on the side tray to make it more solid.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Ben Gardiner another great tip. Makes it more of a work surface. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@bengardiner3867]

@@BringItMuscleCars yep, more solid than the sheet metal top, and ya don't feel bad about scratching the top. Glad you like!

[@rodw]

Where you have he Kobalt magnet holding wrenches, since you have a bunch of the Harbor Freight 18" bars you can bolt them back to back and it hold reallywwell. You can also bolt them on either side using the existing bolts that connect the uprights to the box. Dale Lucid has a video of 5 mods you can check out.😁😍😀Thanks for sharing your thoughts and videos, Rodney

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Rodney Widger I’ve seen that. I definitely think his method works well. I almost mounted some of my pare HF magnets on the side like that. The tool holder I bought will mount to the same holes. It’s neat that they thought of that. Thanks for watching and commenting.

The downsides of four swivel castors is it's a lot harder to steer and also less stable because of the, well, I guess that's why they call them castors- but the castor, which means the contact point can move inward on multiple wheels and destabilize the cart. Just something to think about.

Micah Powers it’s possible. I don’t have my cart somewhere I need to worry about all that. If someone wants in they are going to get in.

Wanted to see what you did with the magnetic magnets two years socket rails you said you just let them out and put them in for your stocking holders wanted to see what you did there

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Dale Williford I’ll try to make a video of that this weekend.

Skip to 1:10 to get to the actual mods.

[@thatc10]

zip tie the HF magentic strips back to back usingt he pre drilled holes in the end. Problem solved

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Great idea

[@exmcgee1647]

Do you have a Part number for the swivel casters ?

[@BringItMuscleCars]

ex mcgee I’m don’t remember they were the blue caster wheels at harbor freight. I think they stock them all of the time.

[@exmcgee1647]

@@BringItMuscleCars I think I found the right number ;61846 maybe. Cheers

ex mcgee they look right. Thanks for providing the link. Others may be looking for it too

can get a sticker

[@B1G5L1M]

Harbor freight sells the magnet blocks so you don't have to rip those bars apart trying to extract the magnets-they're 2 for $.99

[@BringItMuscleCars]

B1G5L1M I’ve seen that. You would get a much cleaner magnet that way. It’s just not as cheap. I think there’s 8 in a strip for $2-$5.

[@marcgossar3165]

Yeah but where do your tampons go bro

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Marc Gossar on the side try. You need easy access to them.

Your camera man is awkward lol he's not taking your verbal cues to record what you're doing lol

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Michael Moses very true. I had to have a talk with him about. I wasn’t happy about it. Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate it.

noise

[@magichands8817]

This video is OK but almost all of your “mods” are not even mods, just add-on accessories.

[@BringItMuscleCars]

Magic Hands I can’t disagree with you. I have another video where I add a side cabinet and a jack holder.

[@upnorth5465]

Best upgrade you can do to your harbor freight cart is return it and get literally anything else.

[@EliteGeeks]

I lost a brain cell listening to this with the odd, cringy pauses

[@BringItMuscleCars]

EliteGeeks sorry man. I hope it helped you a little.

[@chrisduran8692]

I cant. Cringe.

[@jayinla81]

The most awkward yt personality I’ve seen. I thought he was doing it on purpose. Eh. Whatever though. At least try to be likeable. Geez

[@BringItMuscleCars]

J. Sanchez sorry you feel that way. It’s KZbin. If you’re not having fun doing it you’re doing it wrong. That’s what we are about. Having fun and going fast. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Thanks for watching and commenting though.
