<p>This is probably blasphemy on this list, bat a year or so ago I
bought a Makita 1002Z 18v impact gun and have found it to be VERY
good. I don't have to wait for my compressor to fill or to drag
air lines around to use it. I originally bought it to remove the
crankshaft nut on my daughter's Honda civic as my old gun wasn't
up to the task and I'd read horror stories all over the net about
how impossibly tight that nut is from the factory. Rusted spring
hanger bolts were no problem when I replaced the axle on my
utility trailer a few months ago.<br>
</p>
<p>I think specs say something about 1100ft lb in reverse and 700 in
forward. It's a bit bigger and heavier than an air wrench, but it
ticks the boxes of being an expensive brand name cool toy! I
think they may a 3/4" drive version as well.<br>

isn't much of a concern as it seems even the top end ones aren't
