They replace?  What type of tools?  Just wrenches and stuff or all they sell.  I have worn out a chop saw building trailers and most recently a front bumper like BRDHNTER.

My brother left my welding helmet under my truck, wedged between the muffler
and the frame, 3 days later when I asked where it was he said, ohh no and looked
under and found a melted welding helmet, they replaced that which was cool, I think
they started a no ? asked return policy with a paid warantee

that is a great price. I paid 19.99 on sale the other day. It was supposed to be the best sale price they ever get, but I don't know ;D. I like " China Freight" tools. most of my hand tool are from there, but some of there electric items are not that nice. I think the 1/2'' drive Earth Quack is the best air gun made. I have the 1/2'' and 3/4'' drive.

Earth Quack lol, I wanted one of those but wondered
about paying that much for a "cheepo" impact

You say then that you think they are worth buying?

Their definition of things that have a lifetime warranty are "hand tools"....so that would be wrenches, sockets, ratchets, breaker bars, screwdrivers, impact drivers, etc....pretty much anything that isn't air powered, hydraulic, or electric and that you use your hands to operate.
Yes, you can buy extended warrantys on most any item.  I don't recall that you can buy lifetime extended warrantys though...the ones I have seen have added like 1 or 2 years to the factory warranty.  It is a no questions ask type of extended warranty....you can return an item and get a replacement for any reason.

I have had my 1/2'' drive Earth quack for about 5 years and it is almost the only gun I use. I have never touched my 3/8'' OR my 3/4'' gun sense. I know people that claim they use them at Freightliner to change truck tires with, but I still use my 1'' gun for that. it has 9 settings. I bought an impact screw driver that you hit with a hammer on the end. it has a 1/2 drive adapter on it for the screw bits, so I put the adapter on the Earth Quack. I will put it on 1 and brake loose most screws that I can't get with a screw driver. It dissent strip out or brake off the head of the screw either. In position 9 it has more power then almost any 3/4'' gun. The 3/4'' Earth Quack does have more power though. I was having problems on one of our 10 yard dump trucks with the U bolts loosening up from all the vibrations. I used the 1/2'' Earth Quack first, but I was not tight enough. I then used I big 3/4'' ratchet with about a 4-5 foot cheater bar, but that only torqued it down a little bit more then the 1/2'' drive gun. I finally bought the 3/4'' Earth Quack because it was on sale and it torqued the bolts down a lot more. the bolts haven't backed out for about 3 years now. I use the 1/2'' drive Earth Quack a lot. I only oil it once every 3 or 4 months and I run it with a 160-180 PSI air compressor a lot of the time. The only problem I had with mine once was the 4 Allen head bolts on the front of the gun came loose once. I tightened them and haven't had and issues.
