Swapped from a cheap pry bar to a Snap-On one and my wrist stopped hurting after 3 weeks
The cheap one bent on the first rusted bolt, the Snap-On took 5 years of abuse and still pops things off clean, has anyone else noticed how a good pry bar just makes the whole job go faster?

Buddy of mine was fighting a rusty lower control arm bolt on his F-150. Cheap pry bar slipped off and he damn near put his hand through a fender. Borrowed my Snap-On, thing bit in like it was glued. Popped the whole arm loose in two tries. Said his elbow didn't ache for a week after. Now he buys his own.

You ever try heating the bolt head with a torch before you hit it with the pry bar? On rusty F-150 lower arms, I usually hit it with PB Blaster, let it sit for 10 minutes, then use a deadblow hammer on the socket before I even touch the bar. That combo saves me from slipping and cussing.
