Just wondering - who has any of the above tools (in Mississauga), and wants to lend me the tool for an hour Sunday morning (tomorrow)? The job pays coffee and or timmies!!

If I don't check this post in time, any kind soul who has any of the aforementioned tools who also has a BB can PIN me :)

i have a breaker bar, torque wrench (beam type only for changing tires) and a jack but i discovered that it's too tall for the mazda 3 even at stock height and wheels on a a 2x10 and a cheap air compressor for tires, but i'm in scarberia.

just buy the stuff yourself (all of mine cost $125 3 years ago) and you don't have to worry about borrowing them in the future, just about others wanting to borrow them.

if your changing tires...use the tire iron in your trunk, its more than enuff to break loose your lugs...they are only put on at 90lbs or so...its an easy crack

you really dont need an air compressor for tires, etc....just put a bit of weight into it, and the lugs will crack super easy for you

I was actually hoping to inflate my winter tires with the compressor :P Read my other post about what happened though

for those who do not browse the forum extensively, reading this thread does not imply any of that, so therefore we wouldn't know

But the title says tire air compressor? Anyhoo, sorry, I wasn't implying anything when I said to read my other post - it was more of just trying to lead attention to what the outcome of my eventful day was :)
