Default 75 pounds of tools I have used to fix my Discovery I and II

All,
These tools brought me good luck.
I fixed my Discovery II and I with most of these tools.
All from Cylinder Heads to wiring and more.

There is a huge assortment of tools

About $1000 worth.
All now for $300.

See here.

If I don't sell them then I am content to keep them.
But like the migrant farm worker, best to travel light.

As I don't even own a vehicle now then these may go to someone who does.

Your disco has studs? Sometimes the customization can go overboard...

But seriously, what wallpaper did you choose?

What part of the rave calls for the hack saw?

Is that all harbor freight stuff? I might be interested in anything snap-on or matco if you've got it.

Any special Land Rover tools?

All Craftsman and assorted.
There are two good working torque wrenches in the mix.
Plus a wheel puller.

No snap-on.
No Matco or fancy names like that.

But yes, these tools did change two cylinder heads.

As seen here

I'll even throw in a land rover engine gasket set - minus the head gaskets as I used those.

And I will throw in 4 brand new exhaust studs too.

The brutal costs of renting in California and
the intense competition on the job front and a lot older then the average age of 30's and 40's causes me to lighten up my load of stuff
and move to where I find work next.

I can't say where that is yet - but I am lightening up.

Will another Discovery be in my future?
Yes, if I end up in Lake Tahoe...

I wish....

The hacksaw is good for cutting SAI pipes.
75lbs? That's light! I know I have more than that in the back of mine. It's a mobile repair facility back there. The only thing I don't have is a welder and a cutting torch.... yet...
It's piece of mind knowing that I have enough tools to do a head gasket on the side of the road.
Nothing wrong with Craftsman, lifetime warranty without paying for the name like Matco or Snap-On.
As for the high cost of rent, do like everyone seems to be doing... set up a camper in an RV park and stay there year round. (weather permitting of course.)

Good luck jfall wherever you go and whatever you do, may your god go with you.

Been good reading your posts on here.

Very sad to see anyone sell up their tool kit but you have to do what you've gotta do.

All the best.
