    Electric Impact Wrench

    After pondering with the idea of buying an electric impact wrench (Rated at 240 ft/lb) I finally bought one to take off my axle nuts. The first axle nut I got off with a breaker bar. Then comes the passenger side nut, I ended up breaking two of these fucking breaker bars! Then I decided to try the impact wrench, Im thinking theres no way in hell that this little thing can get it off. But sure enough, let it do its thing, the nut came off no problem. So moral of the story, the electric wrenches arent that bad at all.

      what! weird! definately got a bad one if you could hold it still. I was just reading the f22 removal where you broke like 4 torque wrenches, how random.

        They work well. I would recommend one I need to get one for myself. Really nice for taking apart transmissions small and compact.

          how bout snapping a snap-on impact adapter trying to get a crank pulley off? using an ingersoll-rand air gun.

          we ended up taking it off with a breaker bar and me holding the entire engine stand down so it doesnt topple

          but if it was the axle nut, propane torch fo sho
