funny I was just thinking about body mount replacements. What do you think preventive replacement parts say for engine or transmission or body mount replacements or wait till you have a failure and replace then. I suddenly just got an idea too from your job and channel. What would you think of testing some popular brand special tools vs the quality ones you likely use for your day to day job? Universal joint tools or torque wrenches etc your choice but might be fun for you or viewers if you feel like it might be good for you. Anyways great upload simple and to the point also would love to hear about brands oem vs aftermarket sometimes for the DIYer getting a new part can be a chore and not all OEM are great

For electrical components i.e. oxygen sensor; I recommend OEM. For mechanical components it's okay to use aftermarket components except for catalytic converter especially when you're in a state having strict smog requirements.

As for tools, in the old days I primarily used Snap On, Proto, Mac, Matco, Craftsman etc... nowadays I use tools made in Taiwan. I still have my brand new tools but I don't use it as much as people like to steal them. As for torque wrench I use CDI. I wouldn't use anything else but that's my preference.
