Picked up a Autel MaxiSYS Elite MS908e from AESwave, Really like it so far......After I got acclimated to the Android OS that is as I'm more of a iOS & Microsoft guy. Was finally able to ship a 2006 Kia Optima as the Autel would run the EVAP test that my Snap-on Solus Ultra wouldn't. The...

My old Bearing Splitters have seen better days.....Mostly from letting coworkers use them in the past, Seems no one got trained on using a splitter on a press as they always bridge the gap with the Screws instead of the Frames. Also bought a Hub Grappler set.....Not that I do a lot of press fit...
