Snap on 3/16 combo wrench, my boss found two of them cleaning up his office and kept one and gave me the other.

I finally got my jack stand hangers powder coated. Also the dang inner net got me again. I got the Vevro socket holders... they are pretty nice. They do hold vertical with sockets in them.

That nut driver set looks awfully familiar. I think my dad had one similar when I was a kid.

Kent Moore J-8763-1 Transmission Holding Fixture. Figure if I am going to tackle rebuilding my TH400 and 4L60E, may as well get the proper holding fixture to help in the rebuilding process.

Bought a J-6177 Differential Holding Fixture, but had to return it because it was too big for the HO52 differential.

This is the one I need, not the one I bought and returned. It's missing one of the holding plates. $325! Yikes!

If you want to save some bucks,bolt the transmission to your engine stand by the engine mounting bolts,pull your pan,valve body etc. Use a steel plate cut out like a pan to bolt to the transmission pan rail. Bolt the plate upright to the engine stand.
Edit. Oh fck even easier.

Too late, already bought the transmission holding fixture. But would like to get the differential holding fixture, just can't justify $325.
