I purchased the Harbor Freight hydraulic crimper in March of 2010. Shortly
after receiving the crimper, I notified Harbor Freight about the incorrect die
sizes. The customer service agent acted surprised. To correct the situation,
Harbor Freight sent me a new set of dies. The new ones I received were the
exact ones that came with the crimper. I gave up.
Adam is correct that the larger dies will only crimp about a #4 or #2 lug.
I would be interested in knowing if the larger dies on the Chinese version
would fit the Harbor Freight crimper. If so, does anyone know if they are
available for purchase.
