Spring bar installer tool

Hi, the spring bar installer tool is my favorite because I never use it. I always carry it with me; And it amazes people how clean and pretty it is [my spring bar tool] until I show them how to install the spring bars with your bare hands.

The one tool that gets stored in the side compartment is:

Goodyear 24V battery powered Impact wrench

I use it each trip to power the stabilizing jacks down and back up...

It's right there if I need it to remove a tire/wheel on the AS or the TV if needed...really handy for that.

This tool is really handy for any of those jobs with rusty, frozen bolts/nuts...used it when changing axles recently, really a time and knuckle saver...

I have a hand cranked blender...maybe I could remove the handle and use the Impact to make Margaritas...
