I use the S&G Toolaid brand of ratcheting crimping tools with interchangeable dies covering many, many different types of terminals. While I agree for the most part the best tools come from the terminal manufacturers the Toolaid brand is an excellent less expensive alternative.
They have dies specifically for fully insulated Quick Disconnect terminals, uninsulated terminals, Molex terminals as well as WeatherPack too. If there's a down side its there is almost no instruction available how to insert terminals or where to buy the dies not commonly sold by automotive related vendors. Their website isn't the best but emails for help are returned promptly, that being a relative term.
