Man, I've got to buy a wrench now too? I thought these cars could be maintained with just the vice grips and a hammer?

Pretty simple mo-beel maintenance toolkit is enough. Screwdriver, hammer, water pump pliers. Vise-grips for the stubborn screws. Calibrated torque gauge too. "that ain't going anywhere!" seems to have worked on more than a few examples we've seen here.

If you need the big wrenches let me know

The cars come with all the tools you need, even got a air compressor.

I had forgotten that i need to torque the crank bolt to 10 million ft/lbs, but i think i have a 3/4" torque wrench someplace.
