I have a an electric Bosch impact Driver and love it to death. Makes taking out small bolts easier, but if you got a rusted on bolt it won't fly. The torque it provides is plenty to get stuff on and off, but you should still torque it to spec by hand. Not really made for bigger things since its only got about 100-200 inch lbs of torque. (Not FT/lbs)

Harbour Freight is your best friend if you want to get an Air compressor for cheap.. I have a 20 Gallon air compressor and I have to say that removing crank pulleys and axle nuts without it is like going through hell and back. The earthquake air Impact wrench they sell is the best air impact I have ever bought for under $100. 450 ft-lbs of torque well get just about anything off.

I have a 60 gallon compressor in my garage.... but I keep my a battery powered ryobi 200 ft/lb impact gun in my car during races. Also welded a nut on the scissor jack so you can use the impact gun to jack up the car in seconds.
You'll have to buy a battery/charger seperate. Battery life could be better, but it works well. http://www.homedepot.com/Tools-Hardware-Po...51#.UKT91uRT_XQ This post has been edited by czwalga: Nov 15, 2012 - 9:37 AM -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq
