Tools & Garage

Except for checking fluid levels and changing wiper blades, there isn’t much you can do on your car or truck without some kind of tool. Even simple tasks like checking tire pressure or polishing a fender requires an interface between your hand and the vehicle – in these cases a pressure gauge or micro fiber cloth. From versatile wrenches and screwdrivers to specialized valve spring pressure testers and A/C manifold gauges, sophisticated electronic multimeters and scan tools to floor jacks and air compressors for the garage, tools can take many forms, but the one thing all tools & equipment have in common is that you’ll find almost all of them right here. And along with a full complement of tools for working on your car, we also have home repair and remodeling tools and outdoor tools & equipment.

Hand tools are the go-to implements for most car repair and maintenance jobs, and we have an extensive selection including sockets, ratchets, pliers, hex wrenches, hammers, chisels, saws and much more. You can purchase individual tools or SAE and metric wrench and socket sets from 1/4" to 1" drive, but if you’re just starting out and need a lot of tools check out our tool sets. We at TOOLSiD have tool sets organized for mechanics, homeowners, and electricians as well as multi-use sets. When you invest in tools you know their value and they’re best kept secure and organized so you can lay your hands on them when needed. No matter what size or drawer configuration you’re looking for we have the tool storage solutions including boxes, chests, and stationary and rolling cabinets, as well as tool carts and portable tool boxes.

Many automotive repair and maintenance jobs require more than basic hand tools, and we have the special tools needed to successfully service engines, transmissions, suspensions, and brakes, and fuel, ignition, cooling, exhaust and A/C systems. Plus, we have the meters, scan tools and testers that are a necessity for diagnosing and repairing electrical systems and electronic control systems, including DVOMs (Digital Volt Ohm Meters), code readers, battery testers and chargers, emissions analyzers, and diagnostic tools for engine, ABS (Anti-Lock Brake Systems), TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems), and other computer-controlled systems. Many automotive components are a press fit and we have the special pullers to remove these parts safely and without causing damage, as well as hydraulic presses and tooling for reassembly. And we have all your body repair and finishing tool needs like spray guns, hammer & dolly sets, squeegees, buffers, and more.

Whether you're rebuilding an engine or just washing your car, supplies and consumables are a necessity for any kind of auto service. We have cleaners and degreasers for removing dirt, grease and gunk, adhesives and sealants to attach parts and prevent leaks, lubricants to allow parts to move freely and prolong component life, and paints and coatings to refinish surfaces. Of course, TOOLS ID carries all the name-brand motor oil, fluids and additives needed for the engine, cooling system, transmission, brakes, driveline, and suspension, as well as high-temperature grease for bearing assemblies and refrigerant for the A/C system. Our detailing supplies will help keep your car or truck looking great. We have car wash, glass cleaner, spray detailer, wax, polish, wheel and tire care products, and complete car care kits. Our selection also includes supplies that have a longer lifespan but still require eventual replacement including drill bits, saw blades, and grinding bits, and garage necessities like electrical tape, fasteners, wire ties, and electrical connectors and terminals.

Power tools can make jobs go faster and provide the muscle that can make tasks easier. We have both electric and air-powered impact wrenches, drills, cutting tools, grinders, and more. Many of our electric tools are available in corded models and cordless versions that have the power to allow you to work untethered. We offer an extensive selection of saws including circular saws, reciprocating saws, band saws, and compound miter saws. Our blow guns, air ratchets, and air hammers are indispensable for many kinds of auto repair, and air nailers and staplers can make quick work of construction projects, and we have the air compressors to keep your tools running at full power. Keep your shop clean with a wet & dry vac and neat with air hose and electric cord reels.

Safety should always be your most important concern when working with tools and around cars. Never get under a car without first making sure it’s safely supported, and we have the ramps, floor jacks and jack stands for the job. Plus, we have engine hoists and stands, and transmission jacks for those big jobs. You should always wear safety glasses to guard against eye injuries from splashes and debris, but don’t neglect the rest of your body. We have masks and respirators to protect your lungs, mechanic’s gloves to shield your hands, ear muffs to preserve your hearing, and specialized protection like steel toe boots and welding helmets, aprons and gloves.
