Bought the new milwaukee m18 brushless 3/4 drive 18 volt impact wrench! I put my tires on with 1 inch impact wrench that has 1400 pounds of tourqe and this battery impact will loosen them up! It has 1250 pounds of break away power!  Will be a nice add on to my tool shed!

you are dreaming wont happen
Come up, i just went out and tried it again! It will do it! If the wheels were put on at the proper tourqe it would be a piece of cake! I wish i had a 3/4 drive tourqe wrench so i could try it!

 How many pounds should you be torqueing to? My deck over equipment trailer and my 5th wheel only torque to 110 so that would be easy, I may want to look at one. And yes I know you have MUCH bigger wheels!

I put the wheels on as tight as my inch drive with 1400 ft pounds of tourqe will do and the battery impact will take off and tighten 2 sets of wheels!!!  My mechanic started the air compresser and only got a 1/4 to 1/2 turn with inch gun!

NH Braggs.Or on line.
I was just in Braggs the other day.  If I had a lot of money I could spend a fair percentage of it there. ;D :D

Woodhauler,What size air line are you feeding that 1" drive air gun with,my 1" IR long shank tire gun requires 1/2 i.d. line for maximum torque performance,puts out 950 lbs.Hub piloted wheels require 450/500 lbs.Big gun does nothing without big air.On another note, Snap On tool guy came in my shop and took off one of our torqued wheels with a 1/2 "cordless wrench,rated @ 650lbs,i was impressed,most impact wrenches are rate @ reverse

Feeding it with big hose and a 220 volt 2 stage IR compresser. If you are not carefull it will strip the studs!

I was considering getting the ir cordless.  I only have one big truck, but was considering it for changing chipper knives and everything else.


Ill compare specs to the milwaukee. thanks for the heads up.
