Think you’re not going to drop a bolt on the inside of an engine bay eventually? That’s about like betting the next pull of a one-armed-bandit will come up all cherries — unlikely. Why not forego the betting and instead stock up on some tools that’ll help get you out of a bind. As we’ve mentioned before, a magnet can help.
The Monster Swivel Magnet can defiantly help save the day when a wayward bolt runs off down a crevice of the engine. With a 10 lb. lifting capacity, it might also help if you need to pull the Tin Man through a keyhole.
The Monster has a telescoping 22″ to 38″ length that brings its swiveling head to bear even in the bottom of the engine compartment. Though we must admit: we wonder if the strength of the magnet would become a detriment at some point as the head might stick to the side of the engine, making it difficult to position. Still, more power is good. Right?
Street Pricing starts at $22.
