Bought two of these and they work awesome. Worth every dime, We do our own tires on the road now saving us a lot of time and money waiting on tire service.
I used ru-vid.comUgkx4ynqaujg7rZKFapA8s29kTpRszJGa3-K this for the first time today to replace the front wheel bearing on my rwd 98 dodge dakota. This had absolutely no issue removing or reinstalling the lug nuts and it took off the axle nut without any struggle. Sounds like it's got some muscle to it. Time will tell
I wish there were more reviews like this still coming out. Not an “influencer” paid to make content and click bait stuff. Just someone who uses a thing and talks about it. An actual end user.
Well, you should check out Project farm and Torque test channel then. Doesn't get more objective than those two, and especially with project farm he covers a lot of things with pretty scientific testing methods
Thank you!! I was going to buy this one for the lug nuts but thanks to you, I’ll be better off with the extended anvil. I don’t want to be embarrassed by being two inches too short on the tractor diff hubs
Thank you, my friend, I have been thinking about purchasing a badass impact but was not looking to spend cash and not getting the results I was looking for !! So now I have viewed it in action I am very impressed !!! Looks like I will be going to my local vendor and making it part of my toy toolbox!!Thank you again!!
Thank you for posting this video. I kept going back-and-forth on whether to get the short anvil or longer anvil. I sure am glad I watched your video because I was leaning towards the shorter one and I would’ve been screwed not being able to get my drives off.
Uria711 I went back to using the air operated impact , I work on different trucks and some times others overtighten the lug nuts , when they are over titghen the air one has more power to get them loose.
My recommendation is to get the one with the standard/short anvil and get a 1” impact extension to use when needed. Having the 1” impact with the extended anvil is a pain when using It for yoke nuts when the trans is still in the truck. So with the short anvil you have the ability to just add an extension.
The extended anvil is the only one with the torque limiting feature (stops between 360 and 450 foot pounds) . The stubby doesn't get that from what I can tell
@@kainhall You are correct !! I just got the extended anvil model 1 inch and also a 3/4 in and setup their settings on the one key app. It seems like they will be a beast at handling whatever I throw at it. Besides the 1inch kit coming with 12AH batteries and 3/4 with 6AH that 3/4 with the 12ah will be amazing.
Just picked up the 1/2” for the tires on our coaches at work and it rips em off with little amounts of uga dugas. Torqued to 450. And takes everything else off the buses too.
This would be a nice tool to throw behind the seat next to an air jack. An air bottle jack doesn't need a ton of air to operate like an impact. Now this tool just eliminated a large onboard compressor on my truck ! Thank you !
Also any gun air or battery will struggle on lug nuts if they are (OVER TIGHTEN) lug nuts are only supposed to be torqued to 400ftlb to 500ftlb anything tighter can damage over all suspension. Like I mentioned I’ve been a tractor/trailer mechanic for 15 years and only torque nuts to 450ft lb.
Just get an extension, I use the 1/2"/3/4" Milwaukee impact, more than does the job, unless there's some serious rust or stripping of the thread. Truck tyre lugnuts are usually about 475ft-lbs torque, that thing will do over 2,000 I think, that is just about close enough for most wheel loaders, tractors and even quarry or mining haul truck lugnuts - largest, CAT 797 has 54 36mms @2,300ft-lbs (3,200Nm). By the way I'm not gonna tell you how to work but lugnuts should be torqued down to the right torque using a big 4 or 5 foot long torque wrench, that way you don't strip threads, don't under/overtighten and don't lose tyres early.
Those lug nuts should be torqued but in my experience 99% of the shops or truck mechanics that I have seen removing truck tires do not torque them and yes that's why you need a 1" impact to remove them a 1/2" will take some of them off but if your doing this commercially in a large volume every day you would wear that poor thing in no time.
I’m a semi trailer mechanic last 15 years would you say that shorter anvil one would do just fine removing trailer tires? I actually use my Milwaukee 3/4 and it takes lug nuts off no problem. I’m looking for one that will torque and break a trailer alignment bolt. 3/4 wont break it even at 1200ft lb fastening torque
I got the smaller 1" milwaukee that came out several months back .It is a strong impact but some of the transmission pinion nuts it will not break loose.
It just depends how tight some people get them, I had the 1/2" Milwaukee, New impact, couldn't take of the lug nuts on an f250 , it was the high torque, I couldn't believe it..
Unfortunately, this model is not offered here in Bulgaria or with the longer spindle there is the smaller Milwaukee, M18ONEFHIWF1-802X with a price of BGN 1550- $ 950. How many dollars does it cost you. Greetings from Bulgaria.
@@radoslavbogdanov2690 Yes it is more expensive outside the US, I also have the smaller Milwaukee 1" impact that was $750 dlls for the tool only no battery.
Here is the site in Bulgaria here we pay duty on US items, maybe that's why the difference in price. But there is a battery, a suitcase and a charger. With us it is 23:44, I wish you a good evening. I am posting a link to the store. I would like to see what the small impact is capable of, for now I do not have the opportunity to buy them but these will be my next machines. trapkovi.com
Not sure if you already solved the issue with the short anvil but if you haven't here is a possibility. Sunex 5313 1" Drive Impact Extension 13 or Grey Pneumatic (4007E) 1" Drive x 7" Extension Socket 7" Extension w/ Pin hole
The pistol style 1 inch isn't made to loosen.... only tighten . Soft joint (aka, designed to be removed and bolted back many times) is what you use the D handle for . Hard joints.... like steel beam to steel beam is what you use the pistol style for
