        Best place to buy a good back prob kit. I have ford front flex props but need some back probs. Got some from a truck and voltage jumps around do to the bad connection inside the back probs.

        The AESWave uMicroBackProbe has become by go-to since I got them a few months ago:
www.aeswave.com/uMicroBackProbe-Minimum-...onnectors-p9481.html
I'm also a big fan of the Accupuncture set. Costs more, but you get multiple sizes of pin for different applications. Worth it, IMO.

I've also tried the Hantek backprobe set, which is very reasonably priced.
www.amazon.com/Hantek-Pinning-Probes-Pie...sorted/dp/B008L1JT34
The problem with these is how the pin tends to come loose, and the lock screw can't be tightened down sufficiently to fix it. Makes the probe feel flimsy.

        Thank you so much. I'm going to be looking to get the aeswave set. No since in buying a cheap set and then fail a component. Got a set on the matco truck and don't like them

        I've got the micro probe set from aes wave, I think those are probably my favorite.
I've also got a box of them with jumper wires from a tool truck at the shop that are pretty good for like $25.
I don't mind so much when I mangle one of those or drop it under the intake somewhere, never to be seen again...
