 As you get into this do-it-yourself car care world you’ll want to try maintenance and repairs that you hadn’t initially considered. You might take a dent out of the body or want to read the car’s computer for diagnostics. For these and other jobs you’ll need more than a wrench and some screwdrivers. You’ll need specialized tools. Here are some clues:
-
Battery charger
-
Creeper (rolling platform for moving around under a car; pictured)
-
Gear pullers
-
Hydraulic jack and stationary stands
-
Engine hoist (for removing an engine)
-
Electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic power tools
-
Body maintenance and repair tools
-
Drills and taps (for making and threading holes)
-
Vises (for holding parts).
