Product Description

The STEELMAN 06600 ChassisEAR is a versatile electronic squeak and rattle finder that is designed to amplify sounds to allow users to listen and perform real time diagnostics during road tests to locate troubling automotive noises. Using one or all six of the included microphone clamps you can easily pinpoint the exact location of noises that signal damaging wear and possible part failure connected to issues that cannot be duplicated in the garage repair stall and heard with a standard mechanic's stethoscope. A set of included full-coverage, professional-style headphones shut out surrounding sound letting you focus on what the ultrasensitive microphones pick up. Each of the six clamps is color-coded and has a 16-foot wire lead to give you the reach you need to ensure that you can reach even the most difficult vehicle locations. Sensors easily clamp onto problem areas of cars and trucks including springs, torque rods, shocks, body mounts, brakes, dash assemblies, door hinges, drive trains, rear or front axles, transmissions, transfer cases, suspensions, sway bars, tie rod ends, struts, axle hubs, ring and pinion bearings, mufflers, catalytic converters, O2 sensors, A/T cases, oil pumps or even un-torqued bolts.

STEELMAN is an industry leader in automotive and industrial specialty tools and equipment, manufacturing the highest quality, unique, and innovative tools and products, designed to meet the specific needs of mechanics, contractors, and other working professionals.

Lots of environmental noise
3 Stars
Lots of environmental noise
I could write a page. In a nutshell, not as pinpoint on big noise as you'd think. Picks up lots of environmental noise. You really need to be trained on what noise is just louder and which is carrying through, what hollow sounds and direct sounds tell you, because it can really send you in the wrong direction.VERY strong clamps. Didn't fall after driving MILES with bumps etc. Harder to find spots to clamp to than you think though.I would buy a higher end one, definitely wireless, and possibly digital. The wires are VERY sensitive to heat, even with heat shields.Overall, gives you sound but probably not as isolated as you're thinking.
Thank you for your feedback
