Re: Junk Yard Tools ??



Dodger brought a batt-pak impact wrench when we worked on a trashed '66 Ply this summer. I was amazed at how well it worked and how long it lasted without charge. I don't remember what make it was but I really liked it. It got some bolts removed that were causing us grief. Maybe he will chime in here.

If you are only going to use the battery powered impact wrench occasionally you may be able to find a good used name brand like Snap-on, Matco, or Milwaukee.

You want one with a lot of power.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZEBHBR29Wk

Disadvantage of an impact wrench is in a very rusted situation it could snap off the part.

FWIW you could save some coin and get junkyard aerobic exercise at the same time with a 3/4" drive breaker, impact socket and a long heavy pipe used as a cheater. Spray copious amounts of penetrating lube and huff away.  :)

Thanks,
