If you own a pickup truck, you probably have a small tool box in the bed at all times. There are some must-haves from Harbor Freight that you should add to it.
Harbor Freight has plenty of tools, accessories, and other gear for your car, truck, and home garage. A $250 Harbor Freight impact wrench outperformed a Snap-On tool that costs five times as much, and these Harbor Freight auto repair tools should be in every DIYers collection. Daytona Rapid-Pump floor jacks can quickly lift most pickup trucks, but these are best for garage use and not likely to end up in your truck’s tool box. The inside of a truck tool box is valuable real estate; you don’t want to be digging through a thick pile of stuff to get to the one thing you really need.
You will want items in there that are versatile, compact, and easy to retrieve and store again. Whether your existing box is full of neglected equipment or nearly bare, these three items are handy to have around when you’re on the road. While some have mixed reviews from buyers, they each should provide some peace of mind for truck owners going about their daily routines.Two-inch ratcheting load straps
If you’re hauling heavy or bulky items in the bed of your pickup truck, some trusty load-holding straps are an absolute must-have. Harbor Freight sells Haul-Master 2″ by 27′ ratcheting tie-downs with a capacity of 3,300 pounds for $11.99 each. They have J-style hooks that can be joined together or secured to rail systems or bed anchors, and the polyester webbing has a break strength of five tons.
