I will second the Snap On 14.4's I bought one to use for installing and removing flywheels when balancing cranks and have found myself using it for all sorts of thigs. I would never use it for torque sensitive items either, but it is great for running down head bolts and studs etc. I even use it for running a thread chaser through the head bolt holes when torque plate honing blocks. Must be getting smarter ( or lazy) in my old age

If you're looking for a small (3/8" drive) cordless impact, try the Snap-On Model CT561. It's a compact, pistol-style with a maximum of 50 ft/lbs of torque and 2500 rpm's. I've using one for about six months and it's a great all-around tool.

I use this Craftsman model..
http://www.amazon.com/Craftsman-Cord.../dp/B002X0A40G It certainly isn't strong enough to tighten/remove a 7/16-1/2 lug nut from a fully engaged position or a final torque position. BUT it is a great tool for a guy like me who has to change tires 8 times a day when he races...(no trailer, I drive to the track) Kris |
