Identify the brake design before choosing retraction tools.
Start with the vehicle service procedure and inspect the actual brake arrangement. Measuring pads, retracting pistons and bleeding hydraulics require different tools; buy only the supported method and adapters.
Some rear and EPB systems require a different retraction procedure, while ABS bleeding can require supported scan-tool functions. Do not treat a generic piston compressor or pressure bleeder as universal.
Handheld diagnosis or a wireless tablet?
Read the equipment buying guide →MaxiCOM MK900-BT wireless diagnostic tablet
A wireless diagnostic tablet for moving beyond basic engine-code reading into supported vehicle systems, live data and active tests. Check the coverage of the exact vehicles and functions you need before choosing it.
Confirm US activation, VIN-specific functions, secure-gateway fees and renewal terms for the selected seller; accessory support does not mean those accessories are included.
5610 bidirectional OBD2 scanner
A handheld diagnostic scanner for owners and workshop users who want fault-code information and supported bidirectional testing without a tablet-style setup. Vehicle coverage and available tests determine how useful it will be in your bay.
Use the manufacturer coverage checker for the exact year, make, model and function; the advertised reset list is not universal vehicle coverage.
Choose a calibrated range for the fastener.

TRQ50402 1/4-inch torque wrench with case
A click-type torque wrench for tightening suitable fasteners to a specified torque. Match its drive size and working range to the service information for the jobs you expect to do.
Its 20–200 in-lb range does not cover lower 10–19 in-lb settings. Use a different calibrated range when a fastener requires it.
TRQ52403 1/2-inch torque wrench with case
A second torque-wrench option for a different working range and drive requirement. Choose it around actual fastener specifications and access, rather than buying two overlapping ranges automatically.
Its 40–300 ft-lb range does not cover lower 25–39 ft-lb settings. Final tightening follows the vehicle specification, not impact-wrench settings.
3/8-inch micrometer torque wrench
A mid-range torque wrench that fills part of the gap between a small inch-pound wrench and the larger 1/2-inch TEKTON. Its 3/8-inch drive is useful where socket size, access and service torque suit this range.
Check units and tightening direction. The published accuracy declaration covers clockwise use in the upper 80% of full scale; do not assume identical accuracy at every low setting.
Separate hand-drive coverage from impact use.

80300P 51-piece 1/4-inch mechanic socket set
A socket-and-ratchet set for everyday turning and access work around a vehicle. Check the included metric and SAE sizes against the vehicles you service before using piece count to judge its usefulness.
Check that the offer is the 80300P 51-piece set. These chrome hand-drive sockets must not be assumed impact-rated.
2569 43-piece 1/2-inch metric impact socket set
An impact-socket set for compatible powered fastening work. Its drive size, socket depths and size coverage should match the impact wrench and fasteners already in your kit.
There are size skips: 25, 28 and 29 mm are not included. Match socket size, clearance and impact tool.
SKT15311 73-piece 3/8-inch socket and ratchet set
A hand-drive socket set for building broad everyday fastening coverage. Review the socket sizes and supplied drive tools so the set fills gaps in your kit rather than duplicating what you own.
Count owned tools first: kit accessories overlap separate extensions. These chrome sockets are not a substitute for the impact set.
15-piece 3/8-inch universal metric impact socket set
A metric impact-socket set with articulating joints for fasteners that cannot be approached straight on. It adds access capability rather than duplicating a deep socket set in a smaller case.
Check joint clearance, socket size and tool instructions before powered use. This is the 84918N universal set, not a conventional chrome hand-socket set.
Use the end style that fits the connection.

81916 22-piece metric combination wrench set
A combination-wrench set for fasteners where a socket is awkward to position or a second tool is needed to hold the opposite side. Size coverage and handle clearance are the useful starting points for comparing it.
Not a contiguous 6–32 mm set: 25, 26, 28, 29 and 31 mm are absent.
81906 six-piece metric flare-nut wrench set
A six-piece metric flare-nut wrench set for suitable line fittings. The wrench surrounds more of the fitting than an ordinary open-end spanner, but access and fitting condition still affect the job.
Use the correct metric opening and support the line fitting as the vehicle procedure requires. This set is not an SAE substitute.
16-piece metric ratcheting combination wrench set
Ratcheting combination wrenches reduce the need to lift and reposition the tool during suitable fastening work. They offer a different access trade-off from the larger conventional set and the dedicated flare-nut wrenches.
The 23 mm size is absent. Non-reversing heads need clearance to remove or turn the wrench over, so check the surrounding structure before backing a fastener out.
Measure, retract and bleed with the correct method.

25750 dual-piston brake caliper compressor
A brake-caliper piston tool for suitable push-back applications. Check the caliper’s retraction method before choosing this tool, particularly where wind-back or electronic parking-brake procedures apply.
Not a universal rear-caliper wind-back or EPB tool. Follow the vehicle retraction and reservoir procedure.
81850 combination brake-lining thickness gauge set
A brake-lining thickness gauge set for screening pad or lining thickness at an accessible measuring point. Its colour-coded blades help organise a check, while the vehicle limits and a full inspection determine the service decision.
Colour bands are screening aids; replacement decisions use vehicle limits and a proper inspection, not colour alone.
MV6840 pressure brake and clutch bleeding system
A pressure brake-bleeding kit for compatible hydraulic systems and reservoir adapters. The vehicle procedure, fluid specification and correct adapter are essential parts of the buying decision.
Match the adapter, brake fluid and vehicle pressure limit. A generic pressure bleeder does not replace a required ABS scan-tool bleeding procedure.
Disc-brake piston wind-back tool
A compact wind-back tool for supported rear calipers whose pistons must rotate during retraction. It complements the push-back compressor rather than performing the same operation on every brake design.
Match the engagement face and required rotation to the vehicle. An electronic parking brake may require a separate service mode; this tool does not provide that function.
Lifting equipment and support equipment have separate roles.

3-ton aluminium low-profile floor jack
An aluminium floor jack for raising a vehicle at its approved lifting points before suitable supports are installed. The low-profile design is useful only where its entry height, reach and lift range fit the vehicle.
Use only on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Immediately support the vehicle with appropriately selected stands; never work underneath a vehicle supported only by this jack.
10498-PAIR three-ton performance jack stands
A pair of pin-adjusted jack stands for supporting a suitably raised vehicle at approved support locations. Check working height, saddle contact, ground conditions and the manufacturer’s capacity instructions together.
Manufacturer manual requires pair configuration for supporting a vehicle end. Do not turn the per-stand figure into an unrestricted six-ton vehicle recommendation. Match saddle and support point.
2-ton steel Low Rider floor jack
A low-entry steel jack for suitable vehicles where the Arcan’s entry height or lift range does not fit the lifting task. Compare chassis reach, lifting-point access and handling weight as well as capacity.
Use on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Install correctly selected stands before working beneath a vehicle; a jack’s maximum height alone does not establish vehicle suitability.
Choose for visibility, access or retrieval.

66118 Stylus Pro penlight, black
A slim penlight for looking into confined engine-bay, cabin and under-vehicle spaces. Its pocket size makes it a useful companion to a larger work light rather than the only lighting in the bay.
A compact black AAA penlight for close inspection. The stated output and runtime are manufacturer figures, rather than our own measurements.
2125-20 M12 underhood light, bare tool
A cordless underhood light for illuminating the engine bay during inspection and service. Check the mounting arrangement, vehicle opening and battery requirements before buying the bare tool.
The -20 offer is the bare underhood light. Budget for a compatible M12 battery and charger, and check that the hooks fit the vehicle.
HT-2 telescoping magnetic pickup tool
A telescoping magnetic pickup tool for retrieving suitable ferrous items from awkward spaces. It is a useful small addition for dropped fasteners that remain visible or can be located safely.
Check that the selected model is HT-2. Its magnetic pickup claim depends on the object and contact conditions and is not a rating for lifting equipment.
HTC-2 telescoping inspection mirror, black
A telescoping inspection mirror for viewing behind components and around obstructions. Pair it with a light when a direct line of sight is blocked.
The 2.25-inch round mirror and adjustable head suit inspection behind components. Check collapsed size before choosing it for a small pocket or pouch.
Select for the assessed hazard.

Dominator clear-lens safety glasses
Clear-lens safety glasses for suitable indoor workshop tasks. They are the DPG94-1D industrial variant; the exact lens and model should be checked when ordering.
Clear lenses preserve visibility indoors. Match eye protection to the task; safety glasses alone do not cover every grinding, chemical-splash or face-protection requirement.
X4A PELTOR over-head hearing protectors
Headband earmuffs for a workshop hearing-protection kit. Selection depends on noise exposure, fit and compatibility with other protective equipment.
Fit and exposure matter as much as the labelled NRR. These are the X4A headband earmuffs, not a hard-hat attachment.
70472 rubber wheel chocks, two-pack
Rubber wheel chocks for helping restrain an appropriately parked vehicle during suitable workshop work. Match their size and use to the tyre, surface and equipment procedure.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions against the vehicle, surface and intended use. Wheel chocks complement suitable lifting and support equipment; they do not replace jack stands.
