Hey bro. Thanks for the little detail about impact sockets. I honestly did not know this. You saved someone from potentially getting hurt.

Home Depot has a kit with this impact wrench for $200. 2 batteries, charger and tool.

Have the older one...I love these and they are a lifesaver when your smaller impacts won't cut it on stubborn bolts!

I just ordered it and was having doubts until I watched this video. I didn’t think it would be strong enough against a crankshaft pulley but now I’m convinced it can handle the job 😅 👍

Can you switch off the auto mode what good is it if it does not take the nut completey off when your changing a flat tire on the side of a highway.
@WaterFowler417 ай бұрын
Yes the auto mode is one of the speed modes, there’s also traditional modes where the tool runs until you let off the trigger

Just to be clear, are you saying battery size affects torque strength?
@MarkK015 ай бұрын
I had 2 of those. Both were defective so I bought the Milwaukee 2967-00 cheaper then I paid for the Ridgid. I love my Ridgid power tools but when you get 2 defective right out of the box your confidence in the Brand starts to switch brands. Milwaukee is not perfect either. I had 2 M12 6ah go dead a month apart from each other but to be fair those batteries were 4 years old.

Where were you buying these tools that they were defective right out of the box? Seems fishy
@MarkK015 ай бұрын
@@WaterFowler41 Bought them right from Home Depot. There was nothing fishy going on. The first one I put my octane 6ah battery on and it would not come off. I tried for 2 hrs and couldn't get it off. I took it back to Home Depot to see what they could do. The guy in the tool dept finally got it off but he cracked the housing. The second I took it out of the box right inside Home Depot. We put my battery on the second one and it did not work. I already told this story about what happened in this chat a couple weeks ago. The Milwaukee High torque 2967-00 is still on sale for $298.00 at Home Depot.

What exactly is the purpose of the 4 modes? Do they affect torque, rpm or both?
@WaterFowler416 ай бұрын
Yes it does affect all of those and I cover this in the video. Having different speed/torque ratings gives you better control of your task. Not all application require 300+ ft-lbs of tightening capability.

Mine couldn't break loose a 250 ft lbs track bar bolt on my RAM 3500. Supposed to have 1500 ft lbs of break away torque.

Sure the bolt wasn’t siezed? Curious how you ended up breaking it.

Something is wrong with yours...what battery did you use?
@bmbott1236 ай бұрын
I had one that sent in for repairs had no impact power.
