Tool Rental Program

Crimper Tools for Rent!

Our rental program is designed for customers who are purchasing any harness that includes a bag of loose terminals (Modified Original and Custom/Street Rod kits). We supply these very unique and special crimpers to help you with the installation of your American Autowire wiring harness. Our factory style GM terminals supplied in your kit are designed to be crimped by these tools only. Enclosed in your wiring harness kit is bagged kit #500919 labeled “Practice Kit” (Classic Update Series and Highway Series ONLY). We send you these extra terminals so that you can practice your crimping techniques with our crimpers.

American Autowire is currently offering a Delphi Packard Electric “F” type terminal crimping tool for a nominal fee of $25.00. Upon ordering the rental tool, your credit card will be charged $94.00 deposit plus shipping charges to help cover the cost of a new tool replacement. The rental agreement is for a 30 day period and starts upon the arrival of the tool. American Autowire will use the UPS tracking number for verification of arrival.

After 30 days, you will have a 2 week grace period to return the tool to American Autowire to receive your $69.00 credit applied back to your credit card. After that 2 weeks grace period, if you have not contacted or sent back the tool, American Autowire will assume no responsibility and that you have decided to keep the tool for yourself permanently. It will be your responsibility to contact American Autowire after completion of the rental to receive a Return to Manufacturer Authorization number (RMA). To receive an RMA number please contact Don Donovan at (800) 482-9473 extension 212.
