Broke my Mac cam-over stud remover. Was pulling head studs got all but the last two, one 3/4 stud and a 7/16 stud. Broke the remover on the smaller stud, I was supersized when it snapped. I thought for sure the stud snapped.

How would a guy find a Mac tool truck. They use to stop at the shop where I worked and I knew a guy that sold Snap-on but the shop is gone and the guy is too.

I broke one of those about thirty years ago. It was Craftsman though and they wouldn't replace it. I Veed it out with a grinder and welded it up. I've only used it a couple of times since.

I'm just impressed you managed to remove a stud with that. I've owned one better than 30 yrs, and not gotten my money's worth out of it, yet. :rolleyes:

I've only seen them in Anchorage, I haven't seen one locally for some time. I sent the stud remover to the warranty department yesterday. Had to dig out of the snow three times this week so it is taking time
