Recommended Tools For Maintenance Of Your ST
The idea of this topic is to discus the tools people use and/or recommend for doing maintenance on their ST's
With this information hopefully everyone will be able to acquire all the tools they’ll need :grin
This is my list :thumbsup
* Toledo Ratchet Crimping Pliers - 220mm ($39.99 from Supercheap)
These work great on the Red, Blue & Yellow coloured wire connectors

* SCA Automotive Cable Stripping Tool ($20.99 from Supercheap)
These are awesome for stripping wires when doing any electrical works/mods

* Supatool 5 Piece Metric Ratchet Ring Spanner Set ($26.94 from Bunnings)
With these, you only have to place it on the bolt/nut once then ratchet it on or off

* Work Zone Hex/Allen Key Wrench Set ($5.99 from Aldi when on sale)
These have long handles and are very strong making them great for undoing difficult bolts
If not available, I'd recommend:
* ToolPro Hex Key Set - 8 Piece, Metric ($22.49 from Supercheap)
Just as good as the ones from Aldi but these all have nice handles attached to each one
http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/ToolPro-Hex-Key-Set-8-Piece-Metric/215130
* Toledo Torque Wrench 3/8 Inch Square Drive - 301098 ($69.99 from Supercheap)
(This wrench can be set from 7-108 Nm of torque which covers most torque settings on the ST)

* SCA Hex Bit Socket Set - 3/8" Drive, Metric, 7 Piece ($19.99 from Supercheap)
These allow you to torque up hex bolts with the 3/8" drive Torque Wrench

* ToolPro Socket Rail Set - 3/8" Drive, Metric, 10 Piece ($24.99 from Supercheap)
A nice set of 3/8" drive sockets

A nice set of pliers

Gadget put me on to these 2 AWESOME screwdrivers :-++
The Dual Drive gives a ratchet action to the screwdrivers & also gives the ability for them to turn in one direction when turning the handle left and right (They can be set to either direction)
* ToolPro Dual Drive Screwdriver Set - Precision, 11 Piece ($2.00 from Supercheap)
Awesome for use on small screws
http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/ToolPro-Dual-Drive-Screwdriver-Set-Precision-11-Piece/342012
* ToolPro Dual Drive Screwdriver Set - 29 Piece ($15.00 from Supercheap)
Awesome for use on medium to large screws

Anyway that's my list, please discuss and/or post your own recommendations below :thumb
(When recommending a tool, please include a pic (or a link to a pic on the net) and list where you brought the tool so others can check it out and/or buy one too :thumbs)

Thanks for sharing WAG, that's a lot of screwdrivers for $29.98 (and the magnetised tips would make life easier) :thumbs

And they're Stanleys, which are a reputable brand. Most Bunnings stuff is OK, but not everything.
