Traxion 1-200 King Crawler Mechanic's Creeper

First impression is this creeper is ok, but for this price should be higher quality. There are complaints about the board in the base breaking, it feels like it is only a piece of hardboard instead of more durable plywood.Next the caster wheels are light weight plastic with a metal sleeve instead of axle bearings. The ball bearing race is extremely crunchy and more grease does not help. A caster and wheel upgrade is definitely in order, but top of caster has a square base to fit into leg, might be hard to match. Good design, similar to the bone creeper at half the price. But, disappointing low quality casters are not likely to stand up to rough service.

Works as it should.Takes a little bit of time to get used to the wider wheel base when your close to things but no big deal.Very good quality materials.

The crawler is worth it. I bought it for a gift and ordered it 2 weeks before I needed it. The first one came a day after the day I needed it. It came in damaged, I had to return for a replacement and it took another 3 weeks to get it

While no crawler works "great" on a gravel driveway, this works better than my small wheel crawler. The surface is slippery and would be better if it had a more sticky cover. I will probably add some strips of hockey tape across the surface in multiple locations to add some grip. You especially need that friction between you and the crawler to allow the wheels to move over a bumpy surface. With that "fix" I believe this will be a much better tool.

Honestly it rolls too well. I can't keep it In one spot when doing anything. If I lean over to disconnect something it rolls right out from under me. If I try to roll back onto it from the floor it rolls away when I put downward pressure on it. If you don't have to worry about rolling all over the place it's fine but a creeper is generally works well if it stays put a little. The arms off the side make this thing enormous to carry and Also maneuver under a vehicle well. The wheels do a good job rolling over stuff but the size of the whole thing makes it hard to manage. The brake model might be useful but that would also make it even bigger to handle.
