Great. Now I have something to look forward to on the 2008 ML550. I figured it 
would be a real bear to do mounts on just because of the limited space with the 
larger engine. Fortunately, the mounts that are on it are in good shape. I 
definitely checked them when I inspected it.

They are Quinn.
No case.
I’m going to spend a boatload on organizing stuff.

The W163 mounts are no easier or quicker on a lift. If you’ve never done a set 
you wouldn’t know why. You have to get at them from the side, through the wheel 
wells, not the bottom.

I have shit piles of tools in a disorganized state; but I think I was to just 
stock in new tools in the new box from the start then sort out the rest of my 
tools later. 

The motor mounts could be done in 30 minutes in the Okie shop on the lift

Re: [MBZ] Harbor Fright Tools

I already have a Craftsman roll-around box (top and bottom) that is ready to 
fill. I split up stuff I had doubles of at the Florida ranch and brought them 
out here, but it’s pretty hit or miss of what’s here, especially with sockets, 
ratchets and drivers. Nice to get some more ratcheting combination wrenches, 
too.

I’m thinking I’ll take a swing at the motor mounts tomorrow. It needs them bad.

Maybe I should buy that to stock my 72” tool chest I bought a while back.

[MBZ] Harbor Fright Tools

2022-06-11 Thread dan penoff.com via Mercedes
So I’m in Flagstaff and going through my tools this morning in preparation to 
make sure I have everything I need to do the motor mounts on the ML350. I 
realized that I can try to build up my tool collection here in a “hit or miss” 
approach”, but it’s going to be ugly and probably require a lot of trips to HF.

So I’m looking through their coupons for the week and see on for $50 off of a 
“master technician’s" tool set:

https://www.harborfreight.com/master-technician-tool-set-428-pc-58154.html

I bought it and some organizer things for my tool box. Not bad for $350. Damned 
near blew out my back loading the thing in the ML.

I’m pleasantly surprised with this as I unpack it and get things organized. The 
sockets and drivers seem pretty substantial, the plating is solid, and the 
other goodies included with it are pretty good quality.

This will fill a substantial void in my tool collection and make me a lot more 
confident in taking on work and not worrying if I need to run out and grab a 
tool I don’t have…
