I just found out today that if something you bought from Harbor Freight broke them most likely you can buy a replacement part for it. They have a list you can download and look through and find the part you need and can call and order it. Here is the list:

As a professional auto mechanic, Harbor Freight has some of the best tools you can buy. But you have to know which ones and how you use them, because they also have some really poor quality control.
For example, their socket sets and wrenches are great for sacrifical tools that you know or expect will be destroyed in the process, or for tools you dont really care about (loaners). Their Daytona floor jacks are pretty good. Their consumables like gloves, paper towels, grinder discs, etc are also quite good.
Their other tools are mostly good for keeping in your trunk for roadside repair. Pittsburgh torque wrenches, cordless impact, and basic tools set are all perfectly acceptable for roadside use. Makes changing a tire or replacing a belt much easier.
US General toolboxes are also quite nice. I have the triple bay, and while it isn’t quite as nice as a SnapOn or Matco box, it does not break the bank like a SnapOn or Matco box.
Yeah, I feel like Harbor Freight is for the stuff where you wouldn’t be that upset if it was stolen. I guess I never needed a floor jack though.
They’re cool. You get what you pay for.
eh… ymmv. I’ve gotten some useful things from HF (cargo bars), and some really garbage-tier chinesium products too
Is…is this an ad?
Cool story
