Zeth once again you have shown you are a true Master Technician! A Tech who looks after his tools will always look after their customers equipment! A Tech who has a correct range of tools & equipment will also have the skills to look after a vast variety of equipment! A Tech who cares & cleans his tools and cleans up after themselves will leave his customers equipment usually cleaner than they found it! A Tech who has made the investment in his tools and equipment to this scale and has all these attributes is usually a team player and will encourage others to always do their best and all of this is because they have Pride in what they do. Zeth you have all of these qualities which shine through in everything I have seen you do! Proud to follow your channel.
this was literally 50 minutes of heaven. I have to admit nice to see a selection of stuff as well, some expensive some less so. You can always tell an experienced person on the tools yknow? You use what works and lasts, what name is printed on the side doesnt matter so much as long as it works.
Badass video brother it’s good to see fellow Deere techs on TH-cam. Your tour makes me jealous. I just unloaded my stuff out of my truck and started my new role as shop foreman. Keep up the great work
I’m no mechanic, but good golly this is painful to watch when I compare it to my tools!😩😂 very impressive setup! Thank you for taking the time to share.
The cleanliness and organization of your truck is impeccable!!.. I'm a golf course equipment manager/service tech, though I really enjoy your videos. Your equipment is a little larger then what I work on, ha!!. We have a lot of electronics & computer controlled components as well, so the laptop is one of my most important tools. Have a nice week..👍
I’m start as Field Tech in 2 week I’ll be in the shop for 6 mons since I’m new to John Deere . I have been a school Bus mechanic for 13 years . Cool video 👍
Awesome setup, my man! I started building my toolbox a year ago and I must say I'm jealous of your truck, but I also totally understand how much hard work got you to where you're at today.
Nice set up 👍. It shows your professionalism having such a large, well looked after and organised set up. If you showed up to work on my tractor with a set up like that, I would be like this guy means business and go about my day knowing it’s in good hands.
I need to do a video of a man I know that's been doing heavy equipment for decades. Does not own a single Snap on piece. Mostly Husky and Gearwrench. Sometimes he buys new sets just because he likes the mto stay shiney not because anything is wrong with them. With the amount of money he saves from NOT buying snap on he can do that for fun. So I followed his lead. I buy MIlwaukee/DeWalt and Husky. If I break one, its 5 min to HD to swap it out, which in 5 years only broke one socket cause I used it for a impact lol but hey it's just a personal choice. You do you. I am actually glad you do well enough that you can afford a 150K truck and 200K in tools.
Worked with one of them guys, had 3 sets of everything. No Hazard Fraud for over 100 miles was the reason. Hated tool trucks. He went once a month to replace the broken and lost stuff. If you want to jerk wrenches for a living, and supply your own tools, you will pay one way or the other.
If your using your tools to make money and rely on them day in and day out, I would definitely be investing in quality tools and not having an attitude of "oh I'll just go down to HD and get a new one." I'm not dissing on any brand, hell I have Harbor Freight tools as well as Husky and Kobalt. But I'm not making money with my tools either and they aren't my livelihood. When I worked in telecommunications the company supplied the technical tools or us, but the everyday common tools had to be supplied by us. Big difference between buying cheap and buying quality.
What is interesting is what different mechanics take with them on service calls. I'm a "kitchen sink" type mechanic, but I have seen some guys do calls with whatever they fit in a toolbag and that's it.
Out of the hundreds of different tools I own the only own one snap on tool and it is a feeler gauge for adjusting the air gap on points and condensers. Most of my tools are either Sears/Craftsman or Harbor freight Snap on is just extremely over rated and expensive
Wow and I thought I had a lot of tools awesome video yea I think it was said you need the right tool for the job on your work truck when you are out in the field just amazing
I liked your video. Although I'm not into farm equipment, I am into service trucks and tools. You got a nice setup, I had many different service trucks, box trucks, and vans, although the service truck was my favorite. I know the value you bring to your customers as well as how much you invested in your tools and truck.😊😊😊
This was interesting. It is just interesting that in practice all service cars in europe are van style where everything is accessed inside and whole cabin can be warmed up. Only explanation I found is weather, there is much colder and rainy in europe.
My service truck is a F550 with the 6.7 diesel. And my air compressor is PTO driven. Also have a Miller Trailblazer 325 EFI welder. Tanks for Motor oil, Hydraulic oil, Antifreeze and waste oil. All with pumps and 50 hoses. The hose crimper and fittings are in the back left cabinet. Hose is in the box in a sealed container.
Your van is a great quality workshop, I like to see everything organized, congratulations, I love to see your videos they are useful congratulations. 🇵🇹👌👍
Put one of those silica gel dessicant bags like you get in beef jerky in all of the drawers and inside your tool cases especially your feeler gauges and measurement tools, it absorbs moisture and prevents rust. Absolute lifesavers
While watching one of your videos this morning I was wondering if you would do a tour of your service truck. How fitting that I found this a couple of hours later. Thanks, amazing tool set.
I mostly work on race cars I avoid other vehicles. I’m glad I don’t have to buy so many tools for tight places and to get me out of a jam! With 3 sockets and 3 wrenches I can have most of the car apart 7/16, 1/2, 9/16
How do you remember where a tool is that you don't use often? Lol... You could keep many mechanics going on job with all the duplicate tools you have. Enjoy your videos very much. Just need more of them would be great.
And I thought I had a lot of tools!! Nice setup!! Always like a truck organized!! You can find tools and parts when your out in the field!! (I could tell someone that is helping me just where to find something!! I'm really enjoying your videos!! Keep up the Great work!!
Hey Zeth awesome looking rig setup. Looks like they could get you a '' larger truck'' next time. But you definitely use the space you have. And keep all the Green iron moving. Keep up the great content my friend.
There's always a trade-off. A big truck is less maneuverable and less comfortable as a result. On the other hand, a large truck with bigger, deeper cabinets, space for compressor, welder, oxy/ace torch, crane, bulk fluids would be nice.
That magnetic roach clip tool is great for soldering wires. Matco also has a wire holder tool that feed solders through the middle of the tool towards the two wire clips or clamps. Im sure you've seen it or have it. Both are in my tool box. Great content and videos ZK!
Probably the cleanest service truck I have ever seen definitely interested in seeing your set up in a bigger service truck and also very thought out tool purchases definitely will check out gear wrench again.
If you haven’t tried the bent handle ratchets from snap on. They are awesome. They take some getting used to. But once I got used to them I don’t know how I lived without them
Now that’s how you do it rite there!!! That’s a service truck for real, anything you need to work with, you got it with you you ain’t gotta run back to the shop to get nothing, thanks for the video!!!!
Very nice set up, I just bought my F450 service truck and need to put a box like yours in one of the compartments, What brand tool box and how deep are those drawers.? Thanks again awesome set up
I have that tekton set of 12pt impacts and was burnt by assuming it started at 10 and I didn’t have the 10mm 12pt to remove the injector retaining bolt on the QSX15 injector hold down. Luckily customer did. I took out the 11mm and replaced it with a 10mm. 7/16 is same as 11 and I also have the SAE set so it worked out good.
Beautiful setup man, the right tool for the job is way overlooked for some techs. Extra shanks for your Snap-On 45 oring pick, I wish I would have had those on hand many a time instead of waiting for the r@p3 wagon to show up and warranty me! Good call!
Awesome set-up for how little room you got. I've always been a tools on the left, parts supplies on the right kinda guy. After seeing how much you have in your smaller truck I just might start getting some organization stuff for in the bed.
It looks like you need atleast one more set of sockets, another ratchet and another extension. Just messing with you but I think you have more sockets and ratchets in that truck than most people have in their shops
Fantastic tool kit you have, in the USA do you have to buy all your own tools, or does the employer supply some or is it a monthly tool allowance type arrangement? Thanks for sharing
I noticed the Pittsburgh 1/4 flex ratchet. I have it too and like it. I'm not into low end ratchets but it was $9 with coupons. It works way better than you'd expect for $9.
Damn I wish I had all them tools like that I just got me a Milwaukee M12 ratchet I’m getting the fuel m18 combo impact and drill Tommro start getting me a collection goin lol
Your electric bag is very nice but you would benefit greatly by having the little icon ratchet and Bit set, it has lots of stuff you would use every day
Nice tour man.. does the truck run all day and how is it holding up… love to see a tour of the truck engine area and how the fuel economy is, miles and what problems if any you’ve encountered with the trans/engine etc👍👍👍
Awesome collection of tools. Do you have to purchase most of your own, does your employer supply them or give a tool allowance? I'm an automotive tech. We purchase our own. The shop buys special tools, scanners, A/C equipment, etc.
I've been a Deere tech for 13 years. My service vehicle is a GMC 2500 van, which is not nearly big enough. Haven't been able to talk them into a nicer truck yet, not that I haven't asked. I might just have to buy my own.
@@ZKMasterTech How long have you been with Sloan's? How long have you been in this truck? I like to keep my tools in clean, like new condition, if I can help it. I worry about rain and moisture with a truck service body. I work at one of your competitors in Wisconsin. But my family has a decent size dairy farm also. I'd rather not have to by two of everything, but they won't let me take my truck home overnight unless there is a service call close by. It has crossed my mind to maybe try and find a retired tool truck and turn it into a mobile shop.
I have been with Sloan’s for 11 years and I’ve been in that truck since 2019. When I need to work on stuff at home I just fill my personal truck with what tools I think I’ll need plus some extra just in case. But if I’ve got a major project I can take my service truck home.

I can’t be the only one who likes watching these to figure out what tools I need lol. You sir definitely have quite a setup.
Thank you!
You definitely aren’t
I do the same don't worry 😂
I watch and take notes 😂 I just thought my service truck has a lot of tools till I watched this.
I'm not a tool guy, but it's refreshing to see people still take pride in their work and tools. 👍
Zeth……..those are the cleanest set of tech/mechanic tools I have ever seen….wow
such a well organized and loaded truck, well done Zeth.
You're like a surgeon carrying the entire operating room with you. Well prepared and capable.

Best truck tour I've watched. Amazing set up, wouldn't change a thing 👏🏼
This is really cool to see. As a heavy truck tech, the biggest difference is your box has an engine.
I’m no mechanic, but good golly this is painful to watch when I compare it to my tools!😩😂 very impressive setup! Thank you for taking the time to share.

That custom socket your dad made is a hilight for sure. Looks beautifully made.
I’d be interested in learning more about his skill set too!
The most awesome arrangement of tools I have ever seen , love your videos man !
Thanks for sharing Zeth !
Great video loved every minute of it 😊 you have so serious tools 🛠 thanks for taking the time to make your videos 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks 👍
Nice tour. Nice setup. Thanks for sharing
Awesome videos! Just started my 4th week as John Deere Field Tech! Getting good ideas from you! Thank you
Gotta be the best equipped service truck in America! 🤠
Beautiful set up nicely done and I can tell you take pride in your tools! Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you! I appreciate it. 🤘🏼🇺🇸

I think when I need service I am going to have to move to your area. Looks like you are ready for any thing. Thanks for sharing
Come on down!
Beautiful setup. This is an amazing video, lots of nice tools. Well organized!
you got your truck set up very tight and ready for just about anything . good job. can't wait for your next tour.
Thank you!

This guy, like most of us, has tools from all brands, so not sure why you wanted to hate on him.
Been working as a John Deere shop service tech for the past 2 months but it’s cool to see what the field mechanics carry with them also
What is interesting is what different mechanics take with them on service calls. I'm a "kitchen sink" type mechanic, but I have seen some guys do calls with whatever they fit in a toolbag and that's it.
@@paulkleinschmit9871 lol everything i own is in my truck.
Not quite everything I own is in my truck, but it is close.
Congratulations I saw your article about wyotech. I also went there in 1980. I live in Mt Zion by Decatur illinois
I like the fact u buy the best tools regardless of brand not just snapon is the best attitude

sweet collection, mine currently consists of 80% wrenches and related tools and 20% everything else
Thank You. Very interesting
Thank you for the tour
Your tool collection is awesome!!
Thank you very much!
Finally finished watching your video in parts LOL, Awesome setup and tools 💯 just subscribed 🤘
Thank you very much!

That’s not how I ‘d set up my rig? Why a Ford? Kidding! That was awesome. Well done maintenance truck. Very well done! Very impressed.
Nice setup. I was surprised I didn't see a vacuum coolant filler. I love it and would have on the truck.
Thank you! Yes the coolant filler is definitely on my list. Just wish they weren't $400!
Very well equipped!! But it makes me want to go buy tools!!😂🤣🤘🤠🤘
I have the same problem! Thanks for watching

Thank you! They are ctech manufacturing. I think they are 21” deep.
@@ZKMasterTech I'll check them out thanks for replying 🙏
Awesome set up, anything you keep in your boxes to keep the rust off the tools?
Thanks for this great videos! Congrats from Brazil !
I need to show this video to my boss.... it's my Xmas list.
You have more tools in your truck than i have in my whole shop! 😳
I have that tekton set of 12pt impacts and was burnt by assuming it started at 10 and I didn’t have the 10mm 12pt to remove the injector retaining bolt on the QSX15 injector hold down.

Besides Ernst and Toolbox Widgets, what else do you use to organize your wrenches? Nice job on this video!
Tool foam
Beautiful setup man, the right tool for the job is way overlooked for some techs.
Extra shanks for your Snap-On 45 oring pick, I wish I would have had those on hand many a time instead of waiting for the r@p3 wagon to show up and warranty me! Good call!
Very nice setup. Were can I buy the foam?
Kaizen tool foam. I get it online
Lots of tools, nicely organized so you can find them. I enjoyed the tour.
Thank you!
Great video very interesting thank you, superb tool setup
Thank you!
Great job!
Awesome set-up for how little room you got. I've always been a tools on the left, parts supplies on the right kinda guy. After seeing how much you have in your smaller truck I just might start getting some organization stuff for in the bed.
Thanks man! Husky and rigid use the way to go. Best bang for your buck. Everything stays dry.
Hey were did you get your extra long socket for the chopper belt springs? If you don’t mind me asking.
Awesome set up, I wish that the air compressor/ generator was available in the UK
It looks like you need atleast one more set of sockets, another ratchet and another extension.
Just messing with you but I think you have more sockets and ratchets in that truck than most people have in their shops
Yeah I figure I can still cram in a few more tools! LoL thanks!
30:30 Where has this short detection tool been all my life? Wow!
It comes in handy.
Fantastic tool kit you have, in the USA do you have to buy all your own tools, or does the employer supply some or is it a monthly tool allowance type arrangement?
Thanks for sharing
I buy all my tools
I noticed the Pittsburgh 1/4 flex ratchet. I have it too and like it. I'm not into low end ratchets but it was $9 with coupons. It works way better than you'd expect for $9.
Yes they are good
Very awesome... Thanks for sharing 😃
Millon dollars rolling down the road there. Nice collection 👍
Damn I wish I had all them tools like that I just got me a Milwaukee M12 ratchet I’m getting the fuel m18 combo impact and drill Tommro start getting me a collection goin lol
32:28, us refrigeration guys like to call 'em refrigeration or refer. wrench's. For service valve stems on all refrigerant systems.
So, you must have sorted out the insurance of this toolbox on wheels. A tech master needs matching decent equipment! I'm impressed!
Your electric bag is very nice but you would benefit greatly by having the little icon ratchet and Bit set, it has lots of stuff you would use every day
Nice tour man.. does the truck run all day and how is it holding up… love to see a tour of the truck engine area and how the fuel economy is, miles and what problems if any you’ve encountered with the trans/engine etc👍👍👍
Thank you. Well the truck gets 10 mpg empty or loaded lol. It’s only got 23k miles so no problems so far.
