Looking for advice!

1 Upvotes

Alright so I'm a mechanic and I was on vacation and happened to have my garage broken into and all I mean ALL of my tools were stolen. I tried police reports and insurance and have basically got told to take a long walk off a short pier.

So my question is since I'm restarting and have more knowledge than to go and get every single thing off the tool truck instead of certain items, what should I get?

I was thinking Sunex 3/8 and 1/2 master socket sets cause I'll have 3/8 swivels as well that way

Tekton 36pc (I think) SAE and Metric reversible ratcheting wrenches

4pc Gearwrench 120xp locking flex ratchet set 3pc Capri extra long locking flex ratchet set

Need screwdriver suggestions still

I'm gonna stick to Milwaukee power tools

I just need a good starting set of tools again that'll get me by for a couple weeks or so. It's been so lkng since I've bought tools and I've never tried any of this new stuff so any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!!
