Additional tools that anyone should own if performing car mechanics:
-Extendable magnetic wand
-Torque wrenches, 1/2 and 3/8 (cheap autozone ones work great unless you are building an engine.) The price is well worth the aggravation saved from snapped/stripped studs and bolts.
-Propane or MAPP torch
-Breaker bar
-Flashlight
-HF Pick / punch set
A good set of 1/4 <-> 3/8 and 3/8 <-> 1/2 socket adapters, swivels and some various length 3/8in extensions also make a lot of jobs a hell of a lot easier.
