[Shop-talk] Impact wrenches (heavy duty)

[Jeff Scarbrough]

And as for air impact wrenches, I have a Chicago Pneumatic that I
bought in 1979.  Used it professionally for ~5 years, then
occasionally since then.  Always oiled it regularly...it still undoes
the things I need it to undo.  But my transportation is rather smaller
than an F-350 or what have you...
