- Has anyone had any success with using an electric impact wrench to mount and unmount wheels in the pits? I don't know about ones that work off the lighter, but what about ones that run off 120V wall

- I use a cordless screwdriver with a socket bit attachment to spin the nuts off/on. I like it 'cuz it's very portable (no wire) and not so much torque it would cross thread. good to get those plastic

- I use a breaker bar to loosen, and a torque wrench to tighten. In between, I use a Makita cordless drill with a 3/8" socket bit to spin on/off. Works great for me. -jef

- Just a clarification on my earlier question: I have seen many people use the cordless drills to spin the nuts on and off once the torque has been broken, but I'm wondering about an actual impact wren

- Perhaps my electric impact wrench just sucks (I do have one, but I don't use it much), but I found it way faster to break the torque by hand than to wait while the impact wrench chugs away. Its no ai

- Here is a subject I actually know something about. Twelve years ago, I bought, from the local Snap-On dealer, a used Black & Decker (B&D) impact gun that clipped on to your car's battery's terminals.

- Rich, Here's the problem, I have a 120V Ingersol-Rand gun. It will break the torque up to 150lb/inch. It requires 10 Amps of energy, and that means it requires 120V*10AMP=120 Watts. It peaks a bit hi

- The local tool supplier had the Makita (discontinued?) on sale for $140 so I went to try out on my VW lugs in the parking lot. Could'nt budge them. They were hand torque wrenched at 78 ft/lbs. I save

- Yup, me too. I find the X wrench is only a touch slower than a full on air gun (I don't share John's reservations about screwing up when taking off wheels... :-). The nice thing about an X wrench is
