LoudBimmer Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I don't see a point of paying $100+ for crimper if you only going to use it once a year or so.
Lbox88 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 The 8 ton crimpers run about $60, not $100. UBL | Build Log
NightmareImpala Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 The 8 ton crimpers run about $60, not $100. The 8 ton crimpers i got were $50 plus $20 shipping so $70 total TEAM DISTANT THUNDER
Decaf Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I don't see a point of paying $100+ for crimper if you only going to use it once a year or so. then you don't see a point in doing things the right way, with the correct tool you can jack a car up with 2X4s, but 99% of people use a jack because its the correct way to do
n8ball2013 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Lets see I have 6 runs of positive and negative in my car. with 4 ring terminals on each not counitng the big three that im anal retentive about so Id need to ground both alts and both batteries up front. also 5 runs from the batteries to the amps. im at about 45 ring terminals. and thats just in one install. I own lots of tools that I dont use alot. but it sure is nice to have them when i need them' THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.
JacobB89 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 agreed n8 I got one just for my build lol and im sure ill use it later or friends will use it worth it imo. Big Wheels Are Like G-Strings...Anyone can put them on but it don't mean they look good.....
LoudBimmer Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Most people only have 1-2 runs of pos and neg wires. It is a useful tool to have, if you got extra money to spend. Otherwise.....
LoudBimmer Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Everyone got their own opinion. To me it's a waste of money, to other a very useful tool. Just like to me having a TL is the #1 tool to have when competing. Others think otherwise.

I see what ya mean but 8 ton crimper is not to much in my eyes, for knowing that I have a solid strong connection that I dont have to worry about it coming loose or falling out and so on. 1-2 runs of power and ground that is still what 12 ring terminals plus ones for big 3. Now I agree that is not a whole lot, but in many cases bass heads have friends with systems and would use it as well or go in half for it.

Decaf Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 So spending $600-700 on a TL is ok but not $70 to get a better connection and possibly raise TL score because of the lowered resistance hmmm
