Re: ideal toolset for the wrecker runs
That makes too much sense. What about all those things you don't need or intend not to buy but can't help yourself.

Cordless grinder and reciprocating saw, just cut it out and strip it at home

you need a race car with longer wheel studs thenvlad01 wrote:deep sockets, probably not as in the 10+ years of playing commodores and wrecking dozens of them I never needed or used one. I bought my first deep socket set 7-8 months ago for tax purposes and I have not even used one yet lol. They look cool though.
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!

Re: ideal toolset for the wrecker runs
I also take 2 tool kits. The one I think im going to need and can handle carrying around, and the other one with everything else that I leave in the car incase I find those things you dont need or intend but cant help yourself. My local charges $2 to get in but will let you go back to the car if (when) you need something.

Re: ideal toolset for the wrecker runs
Most WA yards pull everything out themselves... although.. usually with a hacksaw or angle grinder. The smell of freshly cut metal is a common theme
