Default Mechanic's Creepers???

You know the thing you role around on under your car. Does anyone know if there is a store that sells them here in Houston? Trying to get one for my dad as a Christmas present.

Really?? I didn't think they would have them. At least nothing worth having. I guess I could still check them out just in case.

Ok, I just checked Lowe's and they do not have them. At least I didn't find them from a quick search.

Oreilly's has a good selection online, but I was trying to get out of paying shipping. I'll go check Lowes tomorrow. I need to drive the car anyway.

Ah Sears is probably a good place. You have to understand my brain is like Jelly this time of night after a full day of work. Sorry about the dumb question, but in any case I do appreciate the suggestions.

Sears, Walmart. A great place would be Northern Tool, since they're a sponsor. I have seen them in the store at I-45 and Airtex in North Houston.

Yeah all the places above should have them. Also try sears hardware if your feeling like spending a little cash on craftsman. I always hated the creepers, because when I had to put some muscle on something I would roll around. Anybody else have this problem? They need a brake on them.

You should be able to find them anywhere. I have bought them at Sears, walmart, harborfreight and Northern tool before. If your dad works in the garage, any creeper should do. I do most of my work in my ancient driveway and creepers only last me a few months.
