Astro Pneumatic Tool 7848 8-Piece Professional Brake Tool Set

Shipping was a little slow

The tools are designed well and of good quality, at least for my use at home. I mostly use the brake spring remover, the adjustment spoons and the spring plier. One thing I don't like with the spring plier is that you have to use the pointed tip on the brake material, and depending on the hardness of the spring, that pointed tip can really dig into your pads when removing or reinstalling the springs. Hopefully this design can be improved.

I am a professional mechanic by trade so i already can tell you that for the price ($50) is a good deal. I have a whole drawer full of brake tools, some broken and some not. Some are plain garbage and some are great but i was looking for a set that came with everything but didn't really know where to find it. I was looking and looking but never found out until i saw this as a recommendation from Amazon. I looked into it and and loved how it came with everything in a convenient case and i love cases because everything is organized and you know when your missing something. For the price, i really couldn't resist, as soon as i saw it i purchased this because i wanted something that came with everything but didn't want to pay a lot. If you price each one of these out from various places you could be paying upwards to $100 for everything. So for $50 i think that this is a very good deal. It surprisingly arrived quickly which i liked because i needed to use it ASAP. The set comes with: • Spring Compressor • Brake Spring Installer • Spring Removal Tool • Brake Retaining Spring Tool • Brake Spring Pliers • Two Brake Adjustment Spoons • Mini Adjustment Spoon • Blow Molded Case The quality is great and every tools works as it should have. There is a review on Amazon stating that the handle separated from the shaft so the handle just spins on the shaft. I could see that but i really don't understand why because for the price it is fairly cheap but what do you expect but if that does happen, take the tool out from the handle and put some glue into the hole and insert the handle back onto the shaft and let it dry. Your done, only if it does happen though but i am doubtful it will. I have yet to have any problems with the tools in this set. This set comes with everything for Domestic and Import vehicles so there should be no problem and used for MOST applications. I am really liking the set and if your in need to do your brakes (for the rear drum brakes) i would totally recommend this set to any DIYer or a professional mechanic because there is no point in spending $100 or more dollars for tools that do the SAME exact job an expensive one does. They are all the same and this set is a great set to buy for the money.
