To anyone who is considering buying either a impact driver or impact wrench: Make sure you buy the appropriate impact-rated bits or you will snap them. Especially sockets if you're doing heavy duty work, you want impact-rated sockets usually made of chrome molybdenum (usually with a black coating). Avoid using chrome vanadium (actual chrome) for impact tools as they will shatter eventually, these are really only for hand-cranking.

I bought a 2017 Ram with a 5.7 Hemi about six months ago. I've tried to take advantage of the time this pandemic has given me to learn new things and took on modifying my truck as one of those projects. I am not a mechanically inclined person. My only experience with any type of vehicle work is changing tires and oil at a shop when I was in my early 20s (aka a long time ago). So far, I've installed a K&N cold air intake and a throttle body spacer, which I'm sure are extremely basic to a lot of the experts who watch this channel. Still, baby steps. Likely to move on to exhaust work next. Videos like this have been extremely helpful in explaining the tools I should choose in a given scenario. Thank you!

Upgraded from an older 18v kit. kzbin.infoUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.

I would recommend that people get the right tool for the job. I have a makita impact driver that broke when trying to unfasten some nuts on a car's tire. I took it apart to see that some teeth of certain gears had snapped off, and were blocking the rotation. Removing the broken teeth made it work again, but it shows that the tool is strong enough to break itself with its own power. I imagine an impact wrench would have to be sturdier on the inside, so as to not break its own gears with the higher torque.

I'm going to offer a different final perspective. If you can only get one Impact tool,, get the small size Impact wrench with the Dentin Pin, and then get the Driver adapter bit. The reasoning is simple.. Bolts are usually bigger then screws, and usually require more torque. So if you need to turn a bolt, pull the adapter off. If you need to drive some screws,, put the adapter bit back on. The difference in weight between my wrench plus adapter, and the driver is not that much. But when I need that that socket head, i know its attached to a proper 3/8" wrench head, instead of a 3/8" adapter bit sitting inside a 1/4 inch socket adapter bit. I have the Dewalt DCF880B, and I do everything short of brushing my teeth with it.

Can you elaborate as to why you suggest picking up a deten pin over friction ring? I'm in the same boat currently. I'm looking to buy my first impact tool and my thought process is basically a reflection to what you explained here. If I was to choose I'd rather have 1/2 at all times and use 1/2 to 1/4 adapter for screws. I'm looking to get dewalt dcf 921 as it's compact and has a punch from what I was able to research.

I work on motorbikes more than cars so the little driver is ideal most of the time but the seized axles, exhaust studs or rota bolts and the impact wrench is a god send. Wouldnt advice using either to start a bolt off though or finish

Great video. I have been wondering about having too much torque when screwing into wood or using a self drilling screw into hard metal. I have had trouble with them in the past and have broken a screw head or two off before. So what you are saying is that Impact Wrench should be used for high torque bolts and nuts. Then a impact wrench would be better to drive torx or hex head screws into metal and of course wood. I don’t use these tools very often so it is okay if they take longer, I am just wanting not to ruin parts or threads. This is a casual or hobby activity for me. Thanks again for your videos.

Here’s a tip if you’re looking to save some money. Get a 3/8” impact wrench and buy a 3/8” to 1/4” hex adapter. You’ll get both tools in one. The key is to buy the higher powered of the 2 if you’re going to go the one tool route instead of buying both driver and wrench (the impact wrench is going to be more powerful than the driver, Atleast in most cases; check before you buy). With the 3/8” impact wrench and hex adapter you’ll have the power to do everything a 3/8” impact wrench can do and also have the versatility of a 1/4” hex impact driver.

Great video but I’m still not sure what to get. I just need something for lug nuts on my Jeep. From the video, I would say a 3/8 impact wrench. 400 ft lbs. but I’ve also seen people do it with a 1/4 impact driver which is much cheaper.

1/4 inch not strong enough, overstressing the tool. Use a 1/2 inch

For car or light truck lug nuts use a 1/2 inch with at least 350 foot pounds of torque. I saw a ryobi kit one at Home Depot today for $120.00 that would be good for that use. You can also get a Milwaukee or DEWALT for more power but will pay several hundred dollars more. Avoid the no name cheap guns.

Fantastic video, thank you. When tightening with an impact wrench, how do you know how much torque are you applying?
@Protoolreviews
@Protoolreviews Жыл бұрын
The best way is to tighten the lug nut in low until it impacts a few times and then use a torque wrench to make sure you’re not over tightening it. Since most people don’t have a torque wrench on hand, you can use the impact wrench the same way, and then hand tighten the lugs with your tire iron. Most vehicles are only specced to have 80 - 125 ft-lbs of torque on the lugs, and even compact impact wrenches can do that. When you over tighten them, you can damage the threads, or sometimes even shear the entire stud off. Either way, that can cost a couple of hundred dollars per wheel to replace damaged studs.

@@Protoolreviews I finally got and used an impact wrench for the first to changed my tires. It definitely saved a lot of time. One thing I'm sort of nervous about when I loosen the nuts, I'm afraid that it may strip the lug nuts. Is that even possible? Thanks in advance!

Use self tapping screws with hex heads and adapter on your drill for the head. Worse case scenario use drill bit to start your hole. Just make sure it’s smaller than screws you intend to use.

Get the 1/2 inch gun with at least 350 fat pounds of torque. I have a craftsman one but ryobi has one in sale now for about $120.00. If you are not a pro either of the above will work on car or light truck lugnuts. The really cheap ones for about 69.00 are not very good.

@MarkusMaximusAurelius
@MarkusMaximusAurelius Жыл бұрын
Tool manufacturer sales reps claim that the motor technology is different between the driver and wrench, and that we should therefore use “the right tool for the job”. Yes there are nuances, but if a driver and wrench have close to the same torque rating, can I use them interchangeably with adapters? Mainly interested in using my driver with an adapter for my tire lugs. Are the manufacturers just trying to get us all to buy two tools instead of one?
