This thing kicks ***. I have removed difficult axle nuts in seconds from my 2006 X with it, lug nuts, the bolts holding the inner lower control arm to the chassis, all 4 suspension bolts, etc. Just absolutely tears in and gets the job done. If you don't have a compressor, this is a MUST. And only $50!

230 lb/ft is not bad for a cheap electric. The only problem I see is that it's big and long. Might be hard to get into some tight spaces. I'll check it out.

I bought one of their air impacts and it wouldn't even spin off a beer cap.

 

I bought a cheap 3/8 impact from O'Reilly's for $50, and with a small socket on it, I could keep it from spinning with my hand.

The only downside to the HF electric is its size.

 

HF model is on sale this weekend at the "Parking lot sale" for $38.83
