Freightliner fasteners

What are you taking off that you keep breaking bits? What size? By hand or power tool?

 

Ive had good luck with Mac, Craftsman, Westward, SK and Mastercraft. I once broke 3 T-55 bits on my ford van and bought a Lysle Super-Bit. That one never broke but I've never seen a T-55 on a Freightliner.

 

Usually hand tools, on trl lights,abs components, engine components, interior parts,etc. Even when they work, torx doesn't offer the end user any advantages over allenhead, phillips head, hex head etc. There's an old saying, "It's like beating a dumb dog", ya don't accomplish anything other than wearing yourself out. You think they're great. I know they're not, think I'll just leave it at that.

 

I've stripped plenty of Phillips heads. Never a Torx.

 

I just pulled my dashboard apart to replace a few gauges. No broken plastic, no stripped screw holes or screw heads. Everything came apart easily and went back together the same way. This 8 year old, 800, 000 mile truck is as tight as the day I drove it off the lot.
I really have no idea why people rag on Columbias so much.
